Originally from London, England, Brian Dixon was trained in illustration at Woolwich Polytechnic Institute. After moving to Canada, he opened and operated a successful sign making company in Mississauga for over 20 years.
In 1992 he began painting full-time in his Birds' Nest Studio in Port Credit.
Now retired and living in Lindsay, Brian continues to create his unique, intensely geometrical abstract landscapes, portraits, and other imagery. Largely shunning traditional surfaces, he prefers the texture of corrugated board and a variety of printers' inks, acrylics, and occasionally oils.
Regarding the subliminal quality of his work, Brian had this to say: "There is always some level of the subconscious working, but I don't look for things. I don't process them − rather, they grow."
