Halima Washington-Dixon
Halima works mostly from her garden studio in Suffolk, England. Occasionally, she works en plein air in the beautiful countryside near her home. She paints almost every day, is always creating and has been painting professionally since 2006. Halima holds a B.A in Visual Arts and Art History from Occidental College (Los Angeles) and an M.F.A in Fine Art from the Academy of Art University (San Francisco).
The vibrancy and thickness of the paint expresses joy and movement. Using a mix of brush and palette knife, she brings her subjects to life. Though she paints many subjects, in recent years she has been drawn to landscape painting. Halima is inspired by expansive countryside views, dramatic Suffolk skies and the rich colours of Summer. Her fresh and airy landscape paintings evoke nostalgic memories and a love of the outdoors, often depicting idyllic Summer days, waving grasses and windswept wheat fields.
