About
Doug Auld is an internationally recognized artist, composer, song writer and playwright. His art makes comment on beauty, human perception, magical timings and synchronicity, as well as social participation.
His portrait series "Those Who Blew the Whistle" honors 100 individuals who have risked everything to speak their truth. His surreal celebrity portraits, a style he terms "Dimorphic Realism" led critics to call him the next Salvador Dali.
Awarded Absolut Vodka’s Artist of the Year in 1993, his works have graced global ad and print campaigns and galleries. His burn survivor series "State of Grace" includes 14 year old “Shayla," oil on canvas, as the first burn survivor portrait to be displayed at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. His recent Stage Musical “Hypnotta," explores UFOs, NDEs, and the question, "Are we alone in the universe?”
