Erin Dixon

Erin Dixon is a Senior Lecturer of Art specializing in Drawing and Painting at the University of West Georgia's School of Visual and Performing Arts. She holds a BFA in Painting from Savannah College of Art and Design and an MFA in Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking from Georgia State University. With over 11 years of teaching experience, she focuses on observational and experimental drawing practices.

Her research explores the intersection of memory and artistic expression through maximalist paintings composed of drawing fragments. These works convey personal themes of loss, nostalgia, humor, and melancholy while examining how memories transform over time.

Dixon has exhibited widely throughout the Southeast, notably in the commemorative '49 Portraits' exhibition honoring victims of the Pulse Nightclub shootings. Her large-scale drawing 'My Trip to Outer Space' received an Award of Distinction at the 10th Annual Drawing Discourse international exhibition.
