D Moses is a multi-disciplinary artist whose professional career began in 2017.
Apparel D has worked with designer Warren Lotas to produce top-selling designs for the brand. They have worked with the NFL, NBA, WNBA, NHL, college sports teams, along with other brand initiatives (Dodge, Jon & Vinny’s, Eric Emmanuel, and Billy Hill). D’s “Wall of Flesh” design (credited as David Moses / Damo) is a perennial best-selling design that has been adapted into a variety of apparel styles. Comics D has also worked with Holy Mountain Printing to produce the comics series Tales from the Holy Mountain. D’s cartooning has been described as a mix of Jack Kirby and Ken Landgraf – blending Kirby’s epic cosmic dynamism with Landgraf’s raw, black-and-white renegade comics sensibility. One element that distinguishes D’s style is a commitment to the art of hand lettering, which they believe gives an added layer of meaning to the work. Additionally, D has self-published comics and had work appear in other titles, anthologies such as Vacuum Decay (issue 1), Skree Zine (Outsider Art issue), Professor Christopher Sperandio (AKA Pink Joe)’s 1972 anthology, Clusterfux Comix FCBD 2022 issue, Rat Nest Zine, Municipal Threat zine, and others. Public Art D has completed public art projects for the City of Raleigh, NC. They produced dynamic and engaging murals across "The City of Oaks." Publishing Book design and literary illustration, for both adult and children’s books, are another facet of D’s artistic endeavors. They have worked for Park End Books on several titles, along with Past-Itch Productions on forthcoming projects. Interviews In addition to being an artist, D has conducted interviews with other cartoonists exploring each creator’s processes with the insight of a fellow artisan, illuminating new dimensions of their work. They have done interviews for The Comics Journal, Stranger’s Fanzine, and have projects in the works, such as I Saw the Pink Light Glow and a collection of interviews to be released in 2026. – D lives near Raleigh, NC and can be reached at [email protected]. |
