Samuka is a talented Brazilian digital artist that mainly gives life to anime characters with real life personalities.
From his social media profiles, we can see that Samuka started drawing and then moved on to digital with photo modification and photoshop.
Clearly a huge fan of anime, he is concentrating in creating pictures of real people in the skin of an anime character such as “Dragon Ball Z”, “Demon Slayer”, “Masters of the Universe”, “Zodiac Knights” or “Thundercats”.
Of course, some of those creations took as a model Michael Jackson.
Such as Muzan from “Demon Slayer” which MJVibe made an article about it in 2020 or Whis from “Dragon Ball Z”.
Samuka is also clearly a Michael Jackson fan, His first digital MJ piece was Michael Jackson face in gold based on the mask made for “Thriller” short film. He also posted on June 25 tribute drawings such as Michael “Bad” Anime or Michael’s child face or Michael as a King. He also photoshopped Michael Jackson in a picture between Lavelle Smith Jr and Rodrigo Teaser, the most well-known impersonator in Brazil.
So here some of his MJ work:
I do love when an artist is a fan of two or more things and merges those into their arts. Especially when one is Michael Jackson. We saw this many times, such as with fans of Lego and MJ creating MJ Lego or fans of history and MJ creating painting of historical persona with Michael’s face.
