My name is Sâde Popoola (aka Shadz), and I’m a 23-year-old, British-Nigerian illustrator based in London.
My passion for creating began as a child when I would draw my favourite animated characters or create my own. This grew into a love for portraiture, using minimalist styles, inspired by my love for pop art, and print-making processes.
Although the content of my work may differ, I aim to always produce something relatable for those who don’t often see themselves, their interests, or their struggles represented in art.
