The artist describes these improvised compositions, which can be spread across canvases, objects, walls, and even whole rooms, as 'a growing drawing virus'. Mr Doodle's art is characterised by a tightly packed and visually overwhelming arrangements of letters, forms, symbols, and recurring characters, drawn with thick black lines on white backgrounds. Ousted by his evil twin brother Dr Scribble, and stranded back on a doodle-free earth, Mr Doodle trades artworks for materials to build a spaceship to get back to Doodleland. Striking a deal with them, Mr Doodle blasted off to Doodleland, a part of the galaxy made entirely of white space. The fictive origins of Mr Doodle were outlined in a 2016 video produced by the artist and Modus Film Productions: 'obsessive-compulsive drawer' Mr Doodle drew the ire of the Anti-Doodle Squad for covering the whole planet in doodles. In 2014, the artist started coming to classes dressed in hand-doodled attire, earning him the nickname that has become his artworld moniker. It was at Bristol that Cox's persona as Mr Doodle fully emerged. The artist has developed these childhood scribbles into a signature art form.Ĭox completed a BA in Illustration at the University of West England in Bristol in 2015. From a young age, Cox developed a passion for drawing, doodling all over schoolbooks, bedroom walls, furniture, and, later, the walls of local restaurants and schools.
Sam Cox, known by his pseudonym Mr Doodle, was born in Kent in 1994.
