Profile

Shaquille takes his inspiration from video games characters and memes found on the internet. Capturing their graphic forms, Shaquille uses 6b pencil and coloured pencils and creates multiple drawings in one sitting. Through his studies of each character, Shaquille combines and merges elements of the carefully observed forms in his drawings to create new characters.
