Artist Bio

I’m blessed to be the third generation of Oklahoman commercial artist and illustrators ( Greg Gilpin / Dick Gilpin ). I have over 20 years of design, print, and painting experience and a childhood raised in a design studio. I enjoy blending my many different media into each other whether it be from material to digital canvas or large-scale exterior facades. My style is thoroughly influenced by typography, the outdoors, cartoons, and graffiti. My optimistic love and passion for pattern, nature, and typography flow through my best works.

I can most often be found in or around the Plaza District, hiking with my beautiful wife and rowdy dogs, or driving around in some sort of beat up old car! Follow my very decorated and animated life on Instagram: @OkieDust
