Terry Dixon (born Washington, D.C., April 6, 1969-March 21, 2019) was an American visual artist. He was awarded a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Atlanta College of Art in 1992 and a Master of Fine Arts degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1995. His art techniques include painting, photography, computer art, video, and electronic music. Dixon’s imagery is fueled by his love for jazz and electronic music. It explores kinetic connections with his abstract style and reflects a heavy influence of African art and abstract expressionism.
Have always loved Dixon.

no wonder my brow so furrows
