Jacob Roberson Biography

United States, born 1997

My name is Jacob (SouthernFriedGhoul) and I’m a 28-year-old dark artist based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Everything I create is done completely by hand—no AI, no digital editing, no computers. Just me, markers, ink, and whatever monsters crawl out of my head that day.
I’ve always been drawn to horror, folklore, and the weird humor in the darker side of things, and my art is where all of that comes to life. A lot of my work has a gritty, old-school feel because I love the imperfections and raw detail you only get from drawing traditionally.
Outside of art, I’m into dogs, music, and sports—pretty normal stuff—but the worlds I draw are anything but.
I’m currently open for commissions, so if you want something custom, creepy, or completely unhinged, I’m your guy.
