Alex Gamsu Jenkins on delayed starts, drawing creepy monsters, and being Instagram famous

Alex Gamsu Jenkins is an illustrator and cartoonist from south London who graduated from Camberwell College of Arts in 2015 having studied Illustration. Since then, he's worked for everyone from Vice to The New York Times and Netflix, building quite the reputation for his satirical, often grotesque work. Here, we chat about the highs and lows of freelancing, finding our creative voices, and learning when we can pick and choose clients and projects. Most refreshingly, we discover Alex's curiosity, kindness, and interest in other people. A must-listen for those keen to build a successful career in illustration. Season Three of The Creative Boom Podcast is kindly sponsored by Capture One.
