Dix Baines

“In describing his current work… while encompassing a range of subjects, many of his paintings fall into a type he refers to as ‘passages of light:’ intense, often late afternoon or early morning scenes of radiance… ‘It’s those spectacular, brief, golden moments of light that make us stop and wonder,’ he explains.  This luminous touch, along with a strong compositional quality and the freshness of his brushwork, is among the distinguishing traits of his art.”  – Gussie Fauntleroy, Focus/Santa Fe

Within the joy of creating paintings, Dix has participated through the years in Arts for the Parks, Buffalo Bill Art Show & Sale, Colorado Governor’s Art Show, Gilcrease Museum Miniatures, Sangre De Cristo Museum, and The Western Master’s Art Show.  Collections include: The Booth Museum, Yellowstone National Park, The Broadmoor Hotel, and Gateway Canyons Resort.
