George Donald RSA RSW (b. Ootacamund, India, 1943) is a painter, printmaker, and lecturer whose contemplative works of gardens, figures, and landscapes combine colour, texture, and pattern to both delight and provoke thought.

He studied Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of Art (ECA), graduating in 1967, before continuing at Hornsey College of Art, London (1969), and the University of Edinburgh (1980).

Donald taught Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking at ECA from 1970 until his retirement in 2000, also serving as Assistant to the Vice Principal and Director of the Centre for Continuing Studies. His academic work extended internationally as Professor of Anatomy and Drawing at the University of Central Florida, USA, and as visiting lecturer in India, China, Japan, and beyond.
