My Bio

Dillon Pringle is an American fine artist, illustrator and musician currently based in Grand Rapids, MI.

Borrowing from both dreams and the everyday, he cites everything from certain animation and video games, to the natural beauty of the universe and human mind as inspiration for his work – which often borders the fantastic and surreal.

Dillon received his A.A. in Visual Arts from MMCC, and is now working on a B.F.A. in Illustration from Kendall College of Art & Design.

Outside of visual art, he spends most of his time with his girlfriend Elyse and their family of beasts, writing and recording music, and going on adventures.
