Francesco Sobrio is an Italian-born digital portrait artist based in Australia. His work is characterized by bold, vibrant colors and a focus on emotive human gazes.
Style and TechniqueMedium:
He specializes in digital painting but often presents his work as mixed media on stretched canvas.Process: Sobrio uses a unique "layer-by-layer" process. He starts by creating a composition and subject, then develops digital stencils to apply colors. Once a piece is finalized, the digital stencils are destroyed, making each work an original.Themes: His "Street Urban Art" collection blends contemporary portraiture with high-impact, graphic styles often featuring strong, feminine subjects.
Background.
Before his art career, Sobrio spent 35 years in the hairdressing industry, serving as an Artistic Director and Educator for major global brands like L’Oreal and Wella. He transitioned to full-time art to explore the "strength and vulnerability" of the human face.
His work is frequently showcased and sold through Australian platforms such as Gallery 247.

Instagram Many thanks for a wonderful Art Show. My wife and I attended on Saturday afternoon and were most impressed.
Not only were the entries outstanding, the layout and the lighting indicated that much thought had been put into the presentation.
No doubt much work had been done behind the scenes to make it such a success.

Have been with gallery247 for 6 years, both free and now paid. Wonderful on line platform for artists which has made my work easy to find and i don't need to worry about setting up my own website; they even forwarded a message from a community college i volunteered for a few years ago, for an art tutor.
