Fascinated
with the relentless love/hate
experience comes with living
with one foot in the city and
one foot in the sea, Los
Angeles-based artist Damian
Fulton creates a uniquely
original “Urban Surf” vision
instantly relatable to those
persevering in today’s over
stimulated, pop-industrialized
world. Influenced by Norman
Rockwell and Rick Griffin
among others, Fulton’s
imaginative blend of
storytelling, scrambled pop
imagery, and painterly
technique belie a respect for
traditions of the past. Fulton
launched his art career as a
cartoonist and illustrator for
Surfer Publications and
painted surf posters for Ocean
Pacific. After doing time at
Ogilvy and Mather Advertising
in Los Angeles as Senior
Partner Creative Director, and
Marvel Productions as VP Head
of Creative Development, he’s
returned to his first love
with a vengeance.
