Hi! My name is Damian Blake.


​ I'm an artist and entertainer based in Kansas City, Missouri.


​​I've been drawing silly pictures and putting on costumes since I was a kiddo. ​I've worked as a designer and art director for corporations including Hallmark Cards, MAAD Creative, and K&Company. ​​

​​I've worked closely with regional and global companies to create countless advertisements, magazines, and catalogues. I've helped small businesses create logos, menus and brochures.

​​​​I've illustrated books, event posters and logos for clients around the world. I love making things for fellow artists, musicians, and performers, and create a lot for the arts, music, burlesque, LGBTQ+, and variety show community.

​I love a creative challenge, and frequently create stage props, costumes, and make-up effects for myself and others!
