Poway Center for the Performing Arts Gallery
Poway, CA, USA United States of America

Poway Center for the Performing Arts Foundation will host a solo exhibition by artist Ione Citrin November 24 through December 30, 2009. A collection of her exquisite paintings depicting landscapes, still lifes, portraits and abstracts grace the walls of the Poway Performing Arts Center. Visit the center to see the live show and the walls of beautiful art. Ione Citrin has been a Premiere Portfolio Member at absolutearts.com since 2005.

Ione Citrin 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.

"I create art because I must.
It is a necessary extension of my life.
It identifies and substantiates my existence.
It is my profile and my legacy.
I want to intrigue and entertain.
I want to initiate wonder and questions.
I want to communicate my thoughts, dreams and desires.
Most of all, I want to be."
