Damien Weighill

A distinctive voice within the British art and illustration scene for a long time. With his signature blend of simple hand-drawn lines and bold blocks of colour, he creates works that are at once playful and thought-provoking.

His imagery moves fluidly between the humorous and the satirical, often using wit as a lens through which to address pressing contemporary issues. Themes of environment, sustainability, and global initiatives appear frequently in his work – sometimes with a critical edge, sometimes with celebratory warmth – but always with an immediacy that invites reflection.

Weighill’s aesthetic has led to collaborations with brands such as Adidas, Google, and YouTube, while his comics have been featured regularly in The Sunday Times Magazine.
