Profile
| Ione is an avant garde artist whose artistic expression takes fantastic shape through her diverse oil and watercolor paintings, bronze sculptures, found object collages and mixed media assemblages. Her contemporary paintings and sculptures range from abstract to realistic to impressionistic - all visionary interpretations from her imaginative soul.
Ione uses only one name but a variety of styles to soothe her wild imagination. A native of Chicago, she is a former television star and commercial voice-over artist. Now she wins awards and sells her creativity through her hands instead of through her larynx. Her art is as original as she is - bold, colorful and highly decorative. |

- The Wine Tasting
- Description: I've traveled through all the European countries during my lifetime, and, of course, enjoy the wineries of each country. I delight in tasting the various vintages, and learning the details which make each winery distinctive. This painting was from a visit to the Citron Winery in France. I made particular note of it, because, as you know, my last name is Citrin. We were curious about the origin of the name thinking we might be related, but learned there was no family connection. We brought back many photographs along with a case of wine, only to learn after we returned home that the Citron wines are sold locally all over the U.S., and just blocks from where we live. C'est la vie!
- A Swirl of Roses
- Description: 25" high x 15" wide - oil on canvas I've never outgrown my childhood habit of looking up into the sky and imagining forms and shapes in the clouds. A "Swirl of Roses" was one of those moments. A beautiful day with soft puffy clouds and a big imagination. A perfect recipe for dreaming up "stuff" for my art work. That's how "Swirl of Roses" evolved. My family always remarks that my "head is in the clouds", and will occasionally say, "come down to earth"; but if I did, then I wouldn't be able to create! My best ideas come as I stumble through life imagining shapes in the sky, the landscape, etc. Everything looks like something else to me. In my art studio I recreate (with embellishment) my various memories.
- Breakfast
- Description: 14 1/2" high x 10 3/4" wide watercolor on paper Every morning promptly at dawn Selma would head out and hunt for her chick's breakfast. Fortunately they were not picky eaters, so just about anything she fed them was immediately gulped down with much commotion for more. They were growing larger every day, their demands for bigger meals were vociferous. Like the good mother she was, she would just shrug her wings, squeak "C'est la vie" and head out for more grub for her babies.
- Squabble
- Description: 14 1/2" high x 10 3/4" wide watercolor on paper Harold and Imelda were just not getting along anymore. Particularly in the morning. Every little thing would set one of them off. Neither would relent, doing so would relinquish power and they both needed to "save face". So, the morning squabbles continued until they eventually tired and had breakfast. The meal of grubs was delicious to them and seemed to calm the atmosphere between them. Food is a great pacifier; that's why there's so many overweight birds in the colony.
