Shamu Azizam grew up in Jefferson, Georgia and is currently based in Twentynine Palms, California. Agrestic life in the United States shapes a documentarian draw to the natural world. Sketched characters of fantasy proportion on church bulletins was intro to the current self-mythology. Painters, Simon Bisely and Frank Frazetta, prompt the artist for fantastic and classic composed imagery. Clicking vast landscapes and framing shapely silhouettes all lapping from westerns, homoerotic zines, bodybuilding and sex work.
