NEW!! ABSTRACTS - Abstract paintings by Ione Citrin
CRUSHED SERIES - Highly textured oil paintings accomplished by careful formulation of various oil paints, varnishes, & mediums designed to produce the tactile
effects you see here. Every painting is "crushed", "wrinkled" and "organic" in appearance. These paintings take daily applications of my "special" formula and constant applications of color along with months to finally dry. They are finished with a slick, high gloss lacquer.

:: METAL MADNESS - a series of enamel on metal abstract paintings by Ione Citrin
I love to experiment. I guess I'm a "tinkerer with an artistic eye".
These metal paintings came about one day when I happened upon some etched or "florintined" steel. These were fashioned as panels in an elevator. I loved the random pattern on the steel, making the light flicker over and about the brushings.

So, I scurried to a local metal shop and discovered that "spangled" steel is not an uncommon product. I immediately purchased a small sample of this galvanized steel and painted on it. Abstract impressions seem to work the best of the simplicity and strength of the support.
My first sample was a success, so I ordered eight 36" x 36" "pans", or metal sheets with 2" lips. Then a carpenter fashioned a wooden frame within the back of each pan, so that a cord could be placed for easy wall hanging.
Now my background was ready for my "brain-waves", and wave it did! I plunged in and developed these paintings you see here, and more. If you'd like to see the other abstracts I've created, please contact me, and I'm more than happy to send you slides/photography for your consideration.
Art is my life,and I hope you enjoy my work.

:: SUNSET PAINTINGS - A sextet of diptychs
Abstract art allows me the freedom to express the world in a whirl of color and form that I see in my mind's eye. Through abstraction of reality I can show the world the way I feel it. My "Sunset" series was created because I love nature and especially "Sunsets"!
I thought I would make them a little more interesting by making a diptych with a strong pattern towards the bottom, thereby breaking the free-flow of one of nature's greatest creations. The creation of this piece involved cutting wood to form the two pieces. Then I began to paint. I painted both pieces pieced together as one. Layer upon layer of acrylic paint. The fine stripes at the bottom were difficult, and I ended up using a variety of methods making each piece different. A heavy shiny gloss of polyresin finished them off.
I sincerely hope you enjoy this series as much I did giving birth to them. If you'd like to see my complete portfolio, let me know. I'm more than happy to send it to you. I have lots of goodies in other genres.
