    Born in a farm region in Western France in the mid-1920’s, Robert lived and worked her entire life in Grues (Loire). With a family background of alcoholism and suicide and personal struggles with illness and depression, Robert started painting in 1945 when she discovered art materials in a local stationary store. Ever since then she produced hundreds of oil, acrylic and gouache paintings depicting farm animals and rural life, painting while holding the canvas on her knees. Her works are included in the Collection de l'Art Brut in Lausanne and the Musée de la Création Franche. She is the subject of the film “Yvonne Robert, Une Femme qui Vient de l’Ombre”. She recently died at the age of 95.
