Rooted in Lakeview: Inspired by New Orleans' Beauty
I live in the vibrant Lakeview neighborhood as a proud Lakeview New Orleans artist. Born in New Orleans, I've spent my life in and around the city, captivated by the beauty of the gardens around me, the diverse colors, shapes, and everything touched by artistic imagination. Through my art, I bring these inspirations to life at Fine Art by d.h.dixon.
Returning to My First Love: Creating Art
Painting became my hobby and gave me a happy space, which made me busy during my teenage years, painting my surroundings on the canvas, but life’s responsibilities—nursing school, marriage, and raising two boys—put my creative pursuits on hold. But now, after years of being in adult life, I am finally retired to return to my first love: creating art, the original New Orleans art.
My Approach to Art
As a self-taught artist, I primarily work with acrylics on stretched cotton canvas, sometimes blending in mixed media. I believe that art belongs in every home, not just galleries or the homes of the privileged. My pieces are created with the intention of adding warmth, character, and a personal touch to any space. If you find a piece that resonates with you, I would be truly honored to share it with you.
