Shamil is such a fun character to draw and write about. It's his own love for art and expression combined with all of his complexities and symbolism that makes him a great source of inspo. I think it's also why I love and appreciate all of the diff interpretations I see as well❤️
something about what is essentially a severely mentally ill artist portraying himself as a disorderly unkempt mess of scribbles and askew lines. sometimes even colorless and monotone. wow.........
