Ilona Fekete was born in a small town in Hungary in 1953. The daughter of a farmer, Ilona developed her love of traditional Hungarian crafts such as crocheting and fine needle embroidery, which were passed down through the generations.Upon coming to Canada at the age of 16, Ilona married and had 3 daughters. While raising a family, she developed her love of folk art painting by studying traditional European folk artists. Now semi-retired, Ilona spends her time developing naive renderings of everyday life. Ilona's paintings tell a story of rustic simplicity through bold colors and whimsical simplicity. She currently resides in Cloverdale and shares her artist studio with her dog Lucy |
