Fausto Dalla Chiara: Inside My Art ~ Photography Meets Digital Illustration

Heading to Mexico with artist Fausto Dalla Chiara

My Background:

Since I was a child I had the curiosity to draw anything, especially monsters. At the same time my dad and my uncle introduced me to the rock and metal world. While I was growing up I joined a band as the guitar player and kept practicing my drawing technique. Then I studied Graphic Design, because the only thing that I had on mind was to reunite my two passions, metal and illustration.

My Artistic Style:

I experiment and modify each and every one of the creations I make until I get to the point that I want for each piece. In short, it’s big heads with a melting texture in a funny way. Lets say that it is a combination of photography and digital illustration.

Music In My Art:

It’s because I love music since forever, especially heavy music. For me, all creations are tributes to people that I really admire and they’re talented as hell.

Collaborating With Musicians:

Of course I have worked with musicians. Most of them like and share my work, I’ve been making some good friends on the road, too. In some cases, I work along with the musicians or the bands too.
