b. 1937 Gregory Weir‑Quiton emerged as a leading fashion illustrator in Los Angeles from the 1960s through the 1980s. Over a three‑decade partnership with the iconic Bullocks Wilshire, he crafted a signature visual language that married his refined, expressive line work with the Art Deco glamour of the flagship store. Drawing architectural motifs like the embossed elevator doors, decorative columns, and patterned tile flooring into his compositions, Weir‑Quiton created a luxurious, stylized world uniquely tied to the store’s aesthetic and clientele. As photography began replacing illustration in fashion media, he transitioned into entertainment illustration, bringing his talents to Hollywood through BLT & Associates. His project roster is impressive: concept art and promotional sketches for blockbusters like Titanic, Sleepless in Seattle, Harry Potter, Saving Private Ryan, and more. Most notably, one of his earliest concept sketches, drawn on tissue paper for Steven Spielberg, was the foundation for the iconic DreamWorks logo of the boy fishing on a crescent moon. Over a career spanning more than 60 years, Gregory Weir‑Quiton’s fashion illustrations for luxury retail and his cinematic concept art bridged style and storytelling, earning acclaim in both fields and securing his place among the A‑list creatives of his generation.
