Simon Dixon biography in Biographies from the artzine on artrepublic.com

His passion for pop icons from the 1950’s to the 1970’s inspires his work. His early pieces include portraits of Elvis, Johnny Rotten and Billie Holiday. Still maintaining the Rock and Roll feel some of his more recent works have taken on a more political feel with works such as Lets Go USA and God Bless America.

Simon Dixon’s style reflects his background illustrating underground comics and music magazines, combined with a personal obsession with all things Rock and Roll. He chooses famous peopl who have an interesting history, but picks the moment the subject truly began to enter the public eye. Every image therefore speaks clearly of change, determination and the passion of holding true to one's self-beliefs.
