Don Stewart earned his bachelor’s degree in Biology and Art at Birmingham-Southern College, where he enrolled in art classes as a change of pace from his premedical studies. Here he was exposed to the process of composite imagery, and began exploring techniques in ballpoint drawing. Don continued to pursue artistic interests as a hobby at the University of Alabama School of Medicine, and during an internship in surgery at the Mayo Clinic, where he received awards for both short fiction and poetry, and published his first two composite drawings. The lifestyle of a surgical resident proved to be at odds with his creative side, however, and by year's end Dr. Stewart opted to discontinue his medical studies. He has since worked as an artist, writer, and creative consultant through the DS Art Studio, where he continues to refine his signature style of visual humor.
