Dim Hill

I'm Dim Hill, a Toronto-based painter.

For more than twenty years I worked as a set and costume designer, art director and illustrator — over 100 theatre productions and 20 films and TV series in Uzbekistan, Russia and the USA, including costume design for the PBS series American Experience. I trained in Tashkent (MA with distinction) and received the Golden Harlequin award for Best Theatre and Film Artist in 2012. Since moving to Canada, I have worked as a scenic painter in the art departments of international series filmed in Toronto.

Painting is where all of that comes home. The stage taught me light, scale and drama, and my canvases are built like scenes — bold colour, visible brushwork, and a single held moment: a lion meeting your gaze, a swimmer suspended in blue, hummingbirds frozen mid-flight.

My work was exhibited in Uzbekistan with the Troe artists' group. I am a full member of the Associated Designers of Canada (ADC) and live and paint in North York, Toronto.
