Multiple award-winning photographer, artist and naturalist Gail Diane Yovanovich has traveled seven continents studying birds, the environment and the natural world. She is passionate about nature and wildlife and takes great joy in sharing nature's splendor through her images.
Her interest in art began as a child when she studied watercolor and oil painting from the age of nine, majored in fine arts in college, and later concentrated on figure drawing at Rice University. She worked variously as an illustrator, museum curator and photojournalist before taking up her camera as a fine art medium.
Her images have appeared in many books and national publications, and Gail has received national and regional awards for her photography in both the fine art photography and photojournalism fields. Her fine art photographs are included in numerous private collections worldwide, as well as in the permanent collections of Keep New Mexico Beautiful and the Eye Institute of New Mexico. Gail also judges photo contests and juried exhibits.
