~  DON NOBLE, ARTIST  ~

Don can’t remember a time when he wasn’t painting and drawing. Born and raised in Torrance, California, he worked in a sign shop after school during his junior and senior high school years. He continued painting and air brushing, doing custom work pin striping and lettering motorcycles, helmets, cars, and surfboard blanks while attending classes at Harbor and El Camino colleges.

Drafted into the US Army, Don was sent to Viet Nam where he was wounded in action. Reassigned to duty at Fort Ord, California, he resumed his artistic activities working in the Post graphics department until his discharge. 

With military duty behind him, Don married Jessica and began a career in the apparel industry. Free lancing and contracting his talents full time, Don worked as Art Director, Creative Director, Designer and Illustrator with highly visible companies such as Disney, Warner Brothers, Aaron Spelling Productions, Graceland, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Knotts Berry Farm, Playboy Entertainment, Hobie Apparel, Kennington Shirt Company, and Crazy Shirts.

After thirty years in the profession, traveling all over the world, meeting dead lines and keeping crazy schedules, Don decided to retire and pursue his first love - decorating and painting large images on walls.

Don and Jessica live in Newbury Park, California, and are grandparents to six, including a set of triplets. Don keeps a busy schedule with family activities and client projects throughout the areas of Ventura County and Los Angeles.
