Mark Dickson has always been interested in art. He feels fortunate for having received strong influences in college. He feels that his professors taught him the value of art, and that the kind of educational tools that were provided to him are not readily available to art students today.
Mark Dickson began his studies at Metropolitan State College, Denver, Colorado and received his Bachelor Degree in Art and Design from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. He received his M.F.A. from the University of Denver. He taught Art for ten years, and was the artist in residence at St. Thomas Theological Seminary in Denver from 1971 to 1975. Late in 1979 he made a full-time commitment to his personal career in art.
The majority medium is pastel and a mixed media of watercolors, oil washes, and graphite pencil. Color is of primary importance to his work. His work shows the influence of artists Milton Avery(who used large areas of color) and Mark Rothko and Adolph Gottlieb (known for their work in the variations of color). Mark is fascinated with color and explores every aspect of its relationships. He feels his use of color is more intuitive versus analytical. See less
