Victor Stabin

Victor Stabin is a Brooklyn-born artist, "eco-surrealist" painter, author, and illustrator. Early in his career, Stabin worked for numerous publications, including Newsweek, The New York Times, Time Magazine, and Rolling Stone, and designed book covers for publishers Penguin Books, Random House, and others. His most well-known work as an illustrator includes painting nine stamps for the United States Postal Service, the cover for the KISS album Unmasked, and a mural for RCA/BMG's headquarters.

Since leaving illustration, Stabin has created a suite of eco-surrealistic paintings and his "ABC Book for the Ages, Daedal Doodle." He has developed Daedal Doodle into a curriculum and teaching tool used in numerous schools across the northeast, an endeavor sponsored in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.
