Issue 09 of The-Art-Form brings together an exciting lineup of artists who have created exclusive drawings and doodles for the magazine, accompanied by in-depth interviews that offer a closer look into their creative worlds.
Mr Doodle, the artistic alter ego of British artist Sam Cox, is known for his playful doodles that transform everyday surfaces into immersive visual experiences. Working across canvases, walls, clothing, and even his own home, he uses a signature black-and-white style, often described as “graffiti spaghetti.”
Gawx is an artist, filmmaker and YouTuber whose work combines illustration, storytelling and cinematic expression. His character designs and composed visuals transform sketches into immersive narratives. Gawx applies cinematic techniques to digital art, creating videos and illustrations that resonate with energy, depth and originality.
Vexx began developing his distinctive doodle style at sixteen, influenced by childhood cartoons. Self-taught, he creates intricate, detailed compositions that combine characters, layered textures and vibrant colour with subtle emotional depth. His work encompasses painting, art toys, and digital projects
Dabs Myla have developed a visual language that is vivid, playful, and meticulously composed, merging influences from graffiti, mid-century illustration, and classic animation. Their collaborative process is seamless, with each piece reflecting a shared vision that celebrates humour, warmth and imagination.
Lugosis is an Italian multidisciplinary artist whose work moves seamlessly between street art, graffiti, tattooing, illustration, and painting. Rooted in graffiti culture and shaped by years of travel, his practice focuses on expressive, cartoon-like characters that balance humour with unease.
Shantell Martin MBE is known for her spontaneous black-and-white line drawings that explore identity, connection, and the act of becoming. Built on a practice of intuitive mark-making, her work unfolds as a stream of consciousness —blending words, characters, and pathways into visual meditations that ask profound questions.
‘Echohead’ by Michael Reeder is a profile-cut, laser-etched wood edition, spray-painted in four different colourways. Each colourway is a limited edition of only 30, signed and numbered by the artist on the reverse. The edition is ready to hang directly to the wall, no frame required.
”A fractured signal, barely held together by memory and static. This figure once had a face, a voice, a name.... now lost in the noise. Echohead drifts between dimensions, broadcasting fragments of its former self, hoping someone, something, is still listening. Each transmission decays a little more, echoing from a place where identity loops, degrades and begins again.” – MICHAEL REEDER
Michael Reeder’s new edition ‘Echohead’ is available now.
'I Am Built From The Mistakes I Made' is a 17 layer silkscreen print with a spot gloss varnish, printed by Goldmark Atelier.
"For 'I Am Built From The Mistakes I Made' I wanted to try something new. So I combined pencil lines into the work in a way that I have never done before. This technique also aligns with the concept that I create who I am from my mistakes." – Gongkan
A limited edition of only 100 prints, signed and numbered by the artist.
‘Knots’ by En Iwamura is a gold foil emboss and clear foil deboss on paper. The gold foil embossing replicates the line work used on En Iwamura's sculptures, creating a unique optical effect when viewed from different angles. This is the first two-dimensional edition that En Iwamura has created.
"I hope to make a sculpture the same scale as 'Knots' one day. An unfamiliar object that suddenly appears in the middle of town, discovered by the people who live there. I always dream to achieve that unfamiliar encounter with my work." – En Iwamura.
A limited edition of only 100 prints, signed and numbered by the artist.
