ABOUT ME
Shrimpy (born 2005) is a self-taught, Australian artist who has been creating videos, tutorials and art-based content on social media for over 7 years.
Having discovered his love for drawing at a very young age, art has always been a part of Shrimpy’s life, and one of his strongest skills. Drawing was always just a hobby until he discovered a YouTube video by Vince Okerman (Vexx), where he was showcasing his signature doodle art style. This marked the day he created his first Vexx-inspired doodle art piece, which quickly drew attention due to the popularity of the doodle art style. Since then, Shrimpy has become one of the largest creators within the "doodle art" community, and one of the most proficient users of Alcohol-based markers with a following of over 1,000,000 people across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
Shrimpy’s art style is made up of many colourful and playful illustrations, fluidly composed within each page. He specialises in creating chaotic and vibrant doodle art, but can also paint and character design, drawing inspiration from anime and Japanese culture.
Some of Shrimpy’s most notable collaborations and achievements have been partnering with Squarespace (2020), Skillshare (2020), winning 'Best Australian Artwork' in the Copic Award competition (2023), designing Oztix's 20th Anniversary logo (2023), partnering with many big art brands such as COPIC (2024), Ohuhu (2024), Arrtx (2024) and BIC Stationary (2024), and being the official brand ambassador for Ohuhu (2024).
