Acerca del creador
Born in Rhode Island in 1959, Nixon holds degrees from Boston University’s School of Visual Arts and Indiana University’s Hope School of Fine Art. In 1996 a stay in France led Nixon to create a new body of work. Inspired by Brittany’s distinctive light and pastoral landscapes, Nixon began producing monotypes. Over the next several years, he explored methods of transferring the simple, evocative qualities of his prints to painting. The resulting landscapes are not literal records of specific places so much as inventions that combine remembered surroundings with perceptual inquiries. Nixon’s work has been widely exhibited in the United States as well as in France and Scotland. His paintings and monotypes are in the Museum of Art at the Rhode Island School of Design and in numerous corporate and private collections. Nixon currently resides with his wife in Massachusetts, where he teaches and paints.
