This is an Original Mark Dickson painting and can be described as nothing short of a revelation in the realm of contemporary art. As one navigates through his vibrant interplay of colors—pinks, purples, blues, and greens—it becomes evident that his works are a bridge between abstract expression and a deep-seated Coloradan sensibility. From afar, the paintings resonate with the raw energy and abstract impulsiveness reminiscent of Adolph Gottlieb or Mark Rothko. However, upon closer introspection, Dickson's canvas unfolds a symphony, harmoniously blending his intuitive understanding of the Colorado landscapes with an almost Rothkoesque play of color and form. His artistry is a culmination of his academic sojourns, from the bustling art scene of Brooklyn's Pratt Institute to the scholarly corridors of the University of Denver. Yet, what stands out is his capability to transcend these teachings and manifest a unique narrative—one that reflects both the external world and the myriad landscapes of the human psyche. The choice of medium, notably pastel mixed with watercolors, oil washes, and graphite pencil, demonstrates a tactile indulgence in his craft. It's as if he's chiseling his memories, experiences, and observations of the Coloradan terrains and skies into each canvas. For the discerning eye, his works might also evoke the expansive color fields of Milton Avery. Yet, Dickson’s approach, particularly his relationship with color, is refreshingly instinctual, almost challenging the viewer to feel rather than dissect. In Mark Dickson's work, we're treated to an exhilarating dance of abstract brilliance juxtaposed with the tangible and intangible memories of Colorado's landscapes. In a sense, each painting becomes an invitation—to wander, to wonder, and to immerse in the art of profound introspection. 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. Mark Dickson’s paintings, prints and monotypes are represented in private, corporate and public art collections nationally.
