PRESTON CRAM

Women with skeletal faces and tattered robes reach toward glowing alien baby. Silhouetted castle in background creates ominous mood

I’m Preston Cram, a happy dude making dark art that explores transformation, rebirth, and the beauty that emerges from difficult moments in life.

My art is inspired by real experiences – moments of change, struggle, and the strange and unexpected moments of growth.

Here, you’ll find the process behind my work and the personal stories that shape each image.
