Don StewartDon Stewart is a former physician turned full-time artist and owner of DS Art - a working studio gallery featuring his visual humor, located off the beaten path in a little suburb of Birmingham, Alabama. Don received a Bachelor of Science degree in Bology and Art at Birmingham-Southern College in 1981, paying his way with a nightclub act as a comic ventriloquist. Initially, he enrolled in art classes as a break from his rigorous premedical curriculum. Soon, he was exposed to the idea of composite imagery, and began exploring techniques in ballpoint drawing. Don continued to pursue his artistic interests as a hobby during medical training at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. After receiving his M.D. in 1985, Dr. Stewart completed an internship in surgery at the Mayo Clinic, but the lifestyle of a surgical resident clashed with his creative side. By year's end, Don opted to discontinue his medical studies, and accepted awards for both his short fiction and poetry, and published his first two composite drawings. The author of two books, he currently limits his medical practice to disorders of the funny bone.
