Yammy, also known as Yam, hails from New York City but currently calls North Carolina home. Her artistic journey began at the age of 12 when she discovered her passion for drawing. Inspired by her mother's words about the cost of clothing, she delved into art classes in school and self-taught fashion design at home. Fashion was her primary focus for years, but she later developed an interest in photography during high school, expanding her creative horizons beyond clothing.

At 21, Yam crossed paths with a friend who introduced her to acrylics, sparking a new chapter in her artistic exploration. Since then, she has dedicated herself to honing her skills in paints, graphite, and digital arts, constantly pushing herself to learn and grow. Recent endeavors have seen her experimenting with resin and other materials to bring her visions to life. The moniker "Your Art Mama" is a reflection of her initials, embodying her nurturing and creative spirit.

Yam's diverse portfolio showcases her evolution as an artist, blending various mediums to express her unique perspective. From captivating paintings to intricate graphite drawings, her work resonates with viewers looking for something special to adorn their walls. Whether for home decor or office spaces, Yam's prints offer a touch of creativity and originality. Embrace her artistic vision and bring a piece of her world into your own with a purchase of her prints.
