Love your calling with passion. It is the meaning of life. – Rodin
A born artist, Dixie Lambert realised early in life that art would always dominate and enrich his life. Pursuing his artistic passion, Dixie studied under some of the best, including Alan Sumner at the National Art Gallery School and Hatton Beck before becoming a lecturer himself at Seven Hills College of Art and QIT/QUT. A master of the mediums, Dixie has created work in watercolour, acrylics, oils, sculpture, bronze, wood carving, stone and pottery. Dixie’s work is represented in Australia, U.S.A., Canada, U.K., New Zealand, Mexico and Spain.
“I see my art as a medium for uplifting the spirit and bringing light. The love and passion I put into each piece is what I want others to participate in. Art for the artist and the viewer is a journey, it can challenge us and take us to new realities.”
