Damian J. McDonald

Damian is an artist, illustrator, and multimedia producer based in the Pacific Northwest and his current work focuses on graphite creature illustrations and their ecology.

I hope my work provides viewers with a respite from their busy lives and reminds them to dream and imagine. I believe both are at the core of growth, change, and innovation. To be ready for that our minds need time to relax and rest.

Some inspirations for my work include zoology, botany, ecology, geology, astronomy, sci-fi art, and fantasy art.
