Contemporary artist working with acrylics and traditional canvas or hand crafted shaped panels.

Born in the inspiring mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, Colton Dion's artistic vision takes traditional landscapes into captivating new dimensions. By fusing the worlds of sculpture, painting and woodworking, he has created an entirely unique realm to explore.

Dion's artistic journey is fueled by a deep connection to nature, particularly the majestic mountains and ever-changing atmosphere of his Western North Carolina home. While life with its twists and turns can work its way into a piece via synchronistic surrealism, or by embedding the soul of the Blue Ridge Mountains into a painting, it’s hard to pinpoint his work. His profound relationship with nature, coupled with an admiration for artists spanning Rene Magritte, Allison Moritsugu, and Ivan Shishkin's evocative forests, shapes his evolving artistic expression.
