Keith Dixon

Living near the Swiss Pre-Alps and Lakeland, as I do, provides me with many alpine subjects to paint. I am a passionate pleinair painter in oils, soft pastels, acrylics and dry media. Born on the E.Coast of N.England, I miss the ocean. This may be why many of my paintings are of water. If I am not visiting my beloved Cornwall I often use my canoe on the lakes and rivers of Europe, to find unusual vantage points or, combine my mountain trecks with painting lonely peaks. Painting can be a hard master but must be enjoyable and nothing replaces practice and more practice. As artists we are very lucky indeed to pursue this special way of seeing the world around us.
