Vibrant red and blue vertical panels create a striking contrast on a wall, accentuated by a sliver of intense light. A white envelope with a red heart seal lies on the ground, its shadow mingling with that of a nearby mouse, who seems to have just discovered it.

I was a creative kid but didn’t think to pursue it and, upon graduating from high school, followed the path of least resistance from mail clerking at an ad agency to managing the HR Department of a mid-sized investment dealer, where, after eight years, I decided to take a run at doing as I pleased. Early on, this was writing, later, illustrating. I still do both, though am acknowledged most for my illustrations, reproductions of which have appeared in Canadian and U.S. publications, been chosen for Apple iCards, and are hung for fun on walls around the world. Two have been featured on Fine Art America's home page—'little black dress' and, more recently, 'painter'. Visit my website, dkzn/dickson, at dkzn.net
