Hi there! My name is Manuel Piedra and I am an architect and concept artist from Spain, currently based in Barcelona.

Biography

During my ten year career in architecture and digital painting, I have been working internationally on projects from scratch until final completion.


From designing real spaces to constructing imaginary worlds, I use both 2D and 3D techniques to create.


Most of my artistic work consists of digital hand-painted artwork where different styles convey different themes. With a background of working on games, book illustration and portraits, my strength is the versatility I have learned through concept development and the translation of ideas into the visual realm.


Besides, I love bringing unreal elements or situations to life by using strokes to enhance the feelings that arise from an idea.
