Thoreau MacDonald

Thoreau MacDonald (born April 21, 1901 at Toronto, Ontario; died May 30, 1989 at Toronto) was a Canadian illustrator, designer and painter.

MacDonald was the son of Group of Seven member J. E. H. MacDonald. He was mainly self-taught, but did work with his father. MacDonald was colour blind, as a result of which he worked primarily in black and white.

As an illustrator, MacDonald worked for the Ryerson Press and "Canadian Forum" magazine.

His work is found in the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Hart House at the University of Toronto, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and the McMichael Canadian Art Collection amongst others.
