Teo Skaffa has lived in many places but currently lives in Istanbul. He grew up in a small town in the Netherlands you've probably never heard of. He uses simple shapes filled with texture and detail to tell a story and is grateful that he's able to make a living by drawing, especially since he's not particularly good at anything else.
