Hello, world. My name is Burton Rast — assumed name, ‘mister burton’ — and I'm an artist and designer living in San Francisco, California.

I lecture at conferences, universities, companies, and industry events — both stateside and abroad — to connect with, and be inspired by, artists, designers, and professionals all stripes, the world over.

And I make unintentionally moody images you can find on both the centralized and independent web.

My work has been featured by Apple, NBC, PetaPixel, Fstoppers, designboom, Fubiz, Cult of Mac, and CNN, among others.
