"The Kotel" Fine Art Print

'I would rather die of passion than of boredom" Vincent van Gogh Donna Dixon is an emerging artist born in Georgia, USA. She has lived in both Houston and Austin,Texas as well. Dixon, who is a self taught artist, trained and worked in the Medical Lab field. Dixon's style has been described as Modern Expressionism. She describes her artwork as colorful and positive and says she is inspired by Impressionist painters and nature is one of her most common sources of inspiration. "For me it is all about the passion of life. I want to capture it with as much gusto as possible." I am captured by the beauty & spiritual purity of animals and nature. This is a 'never-ending' fascination." . Dixon was honored to have artwork included in a previous collection for Saatchi Online, curated by Ms Rebecca Wilson, Chief Curator at the Saatchi Gallery London. 'Originals for $500 and Under Collection.' It wasn't the spotlight Donna Dixon craved when she was growing up. She got her kicks behind the scenes. In school, she took the opportunity to paint sets and scenic props, as opposed to acting on the stage. Today, instead of high school plays, you may spot her art in the background of Hollywood movies. Two paintings of Dixon's can be seen in the 2012 Universal Studios film 'Wanderlust' - a comedy produced by Judd Apatow, directed by David Wain and starring Paul Rudd with Jennifer Aniston.
