"Orange Ball", oil on canvas, by Dimitri Parsons, American 1958 (signed on lower right "Dimitri 58").
Roy Dimitri Parsons was born in London, England, 1926. He and his mother immigrated to the United States in 1931 and he grew up in Long Island, New York near Stoney Brook in a wooded countryside environment.
From the age of 12 he lived in California, in Atherton and Carmel, where he completed High School. He joined the Navy in 1944. After being discharged, he returned to California where he attended Menlo junior college, then UCLA where he studied geology and mathematics with the intention to specialize in seismology. He then realized his real interest lay in the field of art and he was accepted into advanced painting classes in his last year of college.
Later he studied painting techniques with Dr. Albert Toss, a conservator of 15th though 29th century paintings at the LA County Museum. Although Dimitri sculpted in marble and other mediums, his primary emphasis was on oil paint, acrylic, pen and ink and pastels.
His work was exhibited in solo shows in Los Angeles, California in 1958, ‘59, ‘60 and ‘63. More than 200 of his works have been acquired by collectors in the US, Europe, and South America.
