Ione Harrison Art

Ione Harrison is a North Yorkshire based landscape painter, creating vibrant,  atmospheric paintings, and working primarily in watercolour and ink. Ione’s work explores themes of landscape and the natural world. Her studio is in Welburn, York.

Ione earned her degrees at Oxford Brookes University, Bath University and Bath  Spa University. Even though life’s practicalities led her to pursue a professional  career in teaching, Ione has always felt drawn to painting. Many years of international travel as a teacher (France, the Middle East, Turkey, Nepal)  sharpened her perceptions about how landscape shapes lives and deepened her  relationship with colour. She has been influenced in particular by the heat-soaked colours of Asia and the Middle East.
