Artwork Description

Radiance

0.0 x 0.0

The sun is an important entity in all my work, whether it be realistic or abstract. To me, the sun is the beginning of life, the beginning of everything, the center of reality, and appears regularly in many of my paintings. While this abstract, "Radiance", doesn't depict the sun exactly, it is an abstraction of the radiance the sun exudes. "Succulents" - It is difficult to explain abstract art. It is so subjective. I didn't start out painting succulents, it just happened, and so like Darwin I found another species of succulents and so baptized them! "SUCCULENTS" RECEIVES SPECIAL INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION - Artist IONE CITRIN of LOS ANGELES, CA has received a Special Recognition Merit Award for artwork in the "12th Annual All Media Juried Online International Art Exhibition" hosted by Upstream People Gallery. The juror, Art Professor Bradshaw, states this about this specially recognized work: "'IONE CITRIN of Los Angeles, California is a popular artist in the L.A. area and enjoys wide success with her works on canvas. In this show, her piece "Succulents" is very moving and uplifting with the clearly defined curvilinear patterning and the more amorphous and cool background.'" The exhibition will be featured online during January 2010 at www.upstreampeoplegallery.com and continue for 12 months, closing December 31, 2010.
