Iona Lisa Painting

As a Painter, Poet and Photographer I embrace the full spectrum of emotions and express them in my artwork. I bring you my art as an invitation to feel strongly, deeply, and passionately, together. If you see my art and feel something, anything!, powerful, elegant, twisted, then we have been a success. Over the years, I have collected pencils, paints, canvasses and a camera. Lately I have been courageous enough to explore my own fears and portray them in colorful shapes. In my previous career in property management I was absorbed by expressive characters; they have informed my thoughts on barriers, angles, fears and measurement – I now fancy exploring and challenging these barriers, angles, fears and measurements through my art. Extending this exploration over time, my long-term objective is to be the Canadian, female equivalent of Leonardo da Vinci; a versatile, prolific polymath.
