Mr. Doodle

Mr Doodle (Sam Cox, born 1994, Kent) is a British artist known for dense, all-over black-and-white ‘graffiti spaghetti’ doodles that spread across canvases, rooms, buildings, objects, and his own hand-drawn clothing. Combining street art, illustration, performance, and branding, he has quickly built an international following and has collaborated with global companies including Fendi, Converse, Puma, Samsung, and MTV. In 2022, he completed a fully doodled home in Kent known as the ‘Doodle House’ and large-scale mural commissions have followed.

Mr Doodle’s artworks are characterised by tightly packed, improvisatory fields of black lines on predominantly white grounds, filled with letters, symbols, faces, and recurring cartoon-like characters. These compositions can extend from canvases and works on paper to furniture, clothing, cars, and entire rooms, producing immersive environments he describes as a ‘growing drawing virus’.

The artist often refers to his approach as ‘graffiti spaghetti’, a phrase that captures both the speed and visual density of his mark-making. He has stated that his aim is to develop a “universal doodle language” capable of appealing to viewers regardless of age or background.
