“A picture can speak a thousand words” is a saying in multiple languages that means complex and sometimes a lot of unspoken ideas can be conveyed through a picture that conveys its meaning or essence more effectively than a verbal description.

The pictures can be taken through a camera or can be drawn by someone really talented just like Diego Fazio. When you see the paintings done by this self-taught Italian artist, you won’t believe that he creates his unbelievable paintings using just a pencil. It’s really suspicious and seems like the pictures are captured through a camera. Known to the Deviantart users as DiegoKoi. this 22-year-old artist first started as a tattoo artist. As he gained more experience in his respective profession he realized that he actually preferred drawing the bodies themselves rather than on them.

The Italian artist must’ve also had a hunch that there will surely be lots of questions and doubts out there, and made a smart decision to also photograph his art that is still in making. In the pictures you see him working on human figure portraits, which usually take nearly 200 hours to complete. “Sensazioni” is just one of his portraits that is breathtaking. You can see more of his work on his website deviantart and I’m sure it’s going to blow your mind!
