Diego Fazio

Diego Fazio, a 22-year-old artist in Italy who also goes by DiegoKoi
online, is known for his “precise lines and Oriental techniques,”
according to his DeviantArt page. But just how precise and technical his work can be is best exemplified by how realistic his drawings appear.

Take this one.

One might be tempted to argue and say the above image is photograph,
but Fazio created it entirely with pencil. Here’s the piece, which would
be considered photorealistic, while still in the works.

The artist’s work began gaining recent traction after being posted on Buzzfeed.

According to DeviantArt (translated by Google), Fazio was first a
tattoo artist but eventually left to focus on drawing bodies, instead of
drawing on them. Fazio’s “hundreds of shades” are said to lead him “to
create contrasts that touch the soul of the one who observes his works.”

Fazio has been awarded several honors for his work over the last few years. Below are a few more of his drawings.
