ELLEN YEATESEllen Yeates is a graduate of Falmouth School of Art and trained initially as an illustrator, later becoming a graphic designer for 10 years.
In her early years she was particularly drawn to painting the natural world, particularly influenced by the Impressionists and Pre-raphelite painters. Her best pieces always included plants and nature. However, her first career was never in line with her true love of fine art and in 2006, she decided to take a career change, stopped painting altogether and became a lawyer at a Top 70 law firm in the UK, eventually becoming a solicitor and then partner in a regional law firm. |
