The teacher
Matteo Zoccheddu
Matteo Zoccheddu is an Italian artist born in Sardinia in 1991.
Since he was a child he has always been attracted to drawing and over time, his rational mind and the observation and study of the details of everything around him, inevitably led him to realism, focusing mainly on portraits of people or animals. Matteo, better known as Zok, is a complete self-taught artist who learned everything he knows from practice and observation of the works of his favorite artists. Thanks to years and years of practice and experiments he is now able to create hyper-realistic portraits indistinguishable from photographs, which sometimes require months and months of work. Matteo has a strong online presence, through which he offers a window into his artistic life through various social networks, showing his progress on new works and giving advice and support to aspiring artists from all over the world but also offering online teachings in the form of tutorials for anyone interested.
