He studied at the Ontario College of Art which he was given a scholarship to attend. He graduated from the University in 1950. After graduation, Dimson, began a three-year apprenticeship with Art Associates Limited in Toronto. He freelanced for seven years before rejoining the firm in 1960 as vice-president of creative design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1965, Dimson became president and director of a new partnership Reeson Dimson &amp; Smith Ltd. The company later became Dimson &amp; Smith Ltd. and maintained this name until Dimson created Theo Dimson Designs Inc. in 1985. He is the president and creative director of this company. Dimson has a very graphic illustration style that was fostered by his love for comic books and graphic magazines, he&#8217;s able to make a bold statement with minimal detail and interesting contrasting colour palettes. Overall I enjoy Theo Dimsons work and think he has definitely built a recognizable style surrounding his name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"236\" height=\"328\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"249\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo1-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/?attachment_id=249\" class=\"wp-image-249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo1-1.jpg 236w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo1-1-216x300.jpg 216w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 236px) 100vw, 236px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"247\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo3.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/?attachment_id=247\" class=\"wp-image-247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo3.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo3-211x300.jpg 211w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"663\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"248\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/?attachment_id=248\" class=\"wp-image-248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2.jpeg 930w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2-300x214.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2-768x548.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/nuhathayyib\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11641\/2021\/04\/theo2-688x490.jpeg 688w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Theo Dimson was Born in London, Ontario and grew up around comics books and magazines, Dimson fell in love with design at a very early on at a young age.
