It would be an unlikely sight anywhere, let alone in the English countryside.
But nestled among rural homes with manicured gardens is a mansion covered entirely in cartoon-like doodles.
Cox told NBC News during a visit to his mansion Wednesday that after doodling over his bedroom at his parents’ house when he was 15, he knew he wanted “to live in a completely doodled environment. Cox said his playful works were often compared with those of the late U.S. artist Keith Haring, whom Cox called “an amazing, great artist.”He said that plenty of other street and graffiti artists had also influenced him along the way, “as well as cartoons and video games that I played as a kid.
“When I was young, maybe about 16 years old, I realized that doodling was just kind of taking over my life. … I started drawing on my parents’ furniture and everything around me. I wanted my doodles to take over everything,” he said. “So I just became obsessed with it in the best way possible. And it’s been like a happy obsession ever since really.”
He has since recovered, and now has the support of his Ukrainian-born wife, Alena, 32, who is also an artist. They married last year.
