Ilona Royce-Smithkin, a dynamic teacher, has been sponsored in residence by private foundations and the art commissions of several states to lecture on and teach her personal impressionistic style of painting. In addition to technical know-how, she infuses her students with the joy of painting by offering them her own warm personality, pixie humor, amusing anecdotes about the “greats and non-greats” she has captured on canvas, and a firm conviction that painting is for everyone – and anyone can paint if they want to.
Ilona’s experience in art includes study at the Reiman Schule in Berlin, Academie Royale des Beaux Arts in Antwerp, the Art Students’ League in New York and the Cape Cod School of Art in Provincetown. Her work has appeared in many museums in the U.S. and abroad, and she is frequently invited to serve as judge or panel member for competitions and exhibitions. Ilona maintains studios in New York and Cape Cod.
