About the Artist:
Making his 2018 debut in The Art of Disney, Greg McCullough has finally found a place at this unique shop that he calls his artistic home.

Greg’s life has been filled with many personal and professional illustration achievements. And now painting Disney characters in oils has become Greg’s ultimate art form, combining his joy of subject matter with his love of the medium.

Greg’s professional career started at age 15 when he became a caricature artist. In 2007, after a dozen years of Disney-inspired work through advertising agencies, Greg began producing graphics and advertising illustrations for the Disney Parks. His first assignment was the 2009-dated Disney Parks logo, followed by over 90 additional illustrations that are seen by thousands every day in the Disney Parks and on Disney Cruise Line ships.

Greg’s style brings Disney characters and the worlds they live in to life. “My goal is to create works of art that allow visitors to take a bit of the magic home with them,” he explains.
