The cheeky fashion satirical content creator was discovered on Instagram, Angelica Hicks’s humour goes beyond plain illustrations and critique.
“I always really valued Humour.” Agelica Hicks says cheerfully on the other hand of the phone. “I always thought the coolest compliment was to be called funny by someone.”
“Everything has been growing super organically, to the point where I never thought I would be doing this right now. I thought this was something that gave me some enjoyment whilst writing my thesis and working on my exams. I never thought I would be able to graduate university (she graduated –mention from which university- in May) and:
A. obtain an artist visa to go to New York City and
B. be able to freelance straight out of University. This is kind of super incredible.”
It seems that, despite her obvious success, Angelica is still trying to get her head around what is happening to her.
“I went to school in England, and in England, if you can’t copy a Caravaggio you are therefore deemed as untalented. I walked out of the art department when I was 15 thinking I would never be going back in there. I found it very frustrating” She explains “but I continued drawing; I always liked doodling and I always had ‘my style’ as they call it now.”
