ILLUSTRATIONS BY DYLAN MOSS

This is the homepage for all my work! It's a bit of an undertaking in progress, and probably always will be, but if you're here now -- it's in a workable state. Thanks for coming by, and welcome!

I'm an illustrator and printmaker living and working in Nashville, Tennessee. I do much of my design on commission, so if you'd like to reach out about an idea you have, you can email me here: contact.dylmoss@gmail.com

You can find a selection of my finished projects by clicking the PORTFOLIO tab above.

I offer services doing illustration and screenprinting, though if you have an idea you'd like to work together on, I'm always excited for a project. I'll even put together a website for you!

Check the links in the sidebar for music I make, my instagram, and a few resources I used to build this website!

A little bit of background:

I was born in Arizona in the mid-90's and was raised with an appreciation for the arts. It runs in my family to a degree, for better or worse. We moved to Maryland in 2003 after a brief stint living with family in Ireland, and it was there I spent my formative years skateboarding, playing videogames, getting barely passable grades, and getting grounded far more often than I had any right to be.

Having undiagnosed ADHD as a kid, I spent most of my time in the classroom daydreaming and doodling instead of taking notes. This wound up working in my favor when I got to highschool and took my first real art classes. I finally found something I excelled at and actually enjoyed doing. By the time I was a senior, I had figured out how to spend 80% of my schoolday in the art room, and when I got home I was working on drawings constantly.

Moving into my college years, I studied painting, illustration, and graphic design at University of Maryland Baltimore County and Towson University. I struggled feeling a sense of community there, and as they were primarily schools for the sciences, the art program was relatively small. I did meet the band Sun Club during my time at UMBC, which unknowingly set in motion the way I would approach art for the following years. It wasn't long before I dropped out for good to pursue a career in a way that made sense to me.

I had been accepted to Maryland Institute College of Art, and though I couldn't afford to pursue a full degree there, I managed to pull together enough money to take a single screenprinting course. It was 2014 when I moved out of the suburbs and into Baltimore city proper. Between learning how to print and becoming close friends with some of the local music scene, I started making flyers and shirts for bands. In 2017 I decided to move down to Nashville, the draw of Hatch Show Print and living in a city that had such a long, storied history between print and music eventually proved irresistable.

I loaded up my Honda Element, grabbed my cat, and trucked on down. I got a job working retail at Hatch Show Print, which led me to taking an internship in the letterpress side of the shop. In 2018 I got a job working for Grand Palace Silkscreen, and have been happily toiling away there ever since, designing and printing shirts and posters for some of the biggest acts nationwide. In 2019 I met my wife-to-be, and in 2025 we tied the knot.

The road hasn't always been smooth, but it keeps on going, and the sights to see are incredible. It's good to be here. Thanks for having an interest in what I'm about! :)
