Introducing The “Slime Series”: I Work With Slime To Create Hyper-Real, Hand-Drawn Artworks (9 Pics)
My name is Gabriella Anouk and I’m a 27-year-old artist from the UK. In April 2020, during the first lockdown, I started exploring art using household objects, popular emojis and the fascinating texture of slime, while sharing my artistic journey and process on TikTok.
Bringing a surreal and sensual new twist to ordinary items, such as fruit and vegetables, my hyper-real art explores attraction, revulsion and the physicality of everyday objects. Each drawing can take up to 100 hours to complete and is painstakingly hand-drawn.
My ‘Slime Series’ will launch in London on 25 January 2022. Originals and limited-edition fine art prints will be available to buy from www.gabriellaanouk.com on 28 January 2022, and I will also be launching NFTs.
Here are five artworks from the series, plus a couple of me in the studio – I hope you like them!

I quickly discovered that my TikTok followers were just as fascinated by slime as I am! My cheeky slime-drenched peach, “Peachy”, the first drawing in my ‘Slime Series’, attracted 100,000 followers in just a few weeks, while one of my more recent posts has had over 17m views.
“Peachy” was inspired by the cheeky Peach emoji and by some beautiful peaches in my fruit bowl during lockdown. I loved the idea of creating a fuzzy peach texture with the sensual addition of see-through slime. This resulted in a sexy image, which is loved by women and men alike and has become one of my most sought-after artworks.
From there, I was inspired to work with other everyday objects bringing a new perspective and pushing their boundaries. As my drawings are created with so much control and are photographic in quality, it’s important to me that the actual subject I’m drawing isn’t controlled and has an element of disruption.
