David Ouimet is an American musician and artist.

In the early 1990s, Ouimet cofounded noise rock group Cop Shoot Cop. He played sampler and keyboards, and left after their first album to form Motherhead Bug, with whom he sang and played trombone. He's also recorded and toured with Foetus and Swans.

Ouimet's illustrations of creepy, bipedal, fez-capped insect creatures (usually wielding scimitars or smoking hookahs) were featured on Motherhead Bug's singles and album, and he has continued his career as an illustrator with Robert D. San Souci's Dare To Be Scared series and Nancy Etchmendy's Cat In Glass and other Tales of the Unnatural.
