Diego Fazio was born on October 10th 1989 in Lamezia Terme. He taught himself the visual arts because of his passion for drawing. Although he used to keep his art to himself, he began to use the Internet to gain connections with organizations and committees to expand his art environment. He was inspired by the work of Katsushika Hokusai and created tattoo designs when he was young. Over time, his drawing skills and attention to value increased drastically as he was obsessed with perfecting his work.Alexia Diega Fazio

Diego uses Derwent Graphic Pencils and believes they are strong and the best for him when drawing classically. The drawing that introduced him to most people on the internet was his drawing of a girl with water pouring on her. The drawing was so well produced it looked exactly as if it were a picture (which is why he is known for his photorealism and hyper realism).
