The Art of Don Aguillo Freelance Illustration, Comic Artist, Concept Art, Commissions

Freelance Illustrator, Comic Artist & Concept Designer
15+ Years of experience in Traditional Art, Print Media, Production Design, and Pre-Visualization

Post Penn State University (Bachelor of Fine Arts with Honors in Drawing and Painting), I focused in digital painting, concept art and production design through initial studio work and freelance projects. Through a host of early work in independ

ent endeavors that were privately funded, corporately funded, as well as crowdfunded, I expanded the avenues of my work into gaming, entertainment industry and eventually into mainstream comics, most notably through my work in my creator-owned series Rise (originally published by IH Studios & Scout Comics) and my cover work for Spawn (Published by Image Comics), working for Todd McFarlane Productions, DC Comics projects beginning with DC Pride 2023, and Marvel Licensed work for Upper Deck & Second Dinner. I draw from my experience of classic art through school, living and painting in Rome, Italy, industry work in Houston, Texas as a studio concept artist where I began my contract work, finally arriving in San Francisco, California in early 2010 which galvanized my path onto freelance illustration.

Out on shelves today at your : Spawn 378!!! Spawn, still slowly starving and weakened, needs to lean on his background as a soldier and assassin. He is still hunted by the divine forces of Heaven, and time is running out for him. Brought to you by the brilliant team of Matthew Rosenberg & and artbro Stephen Segovia!!! Looking forward to meeting Matthew this weekend at Cape & Cowl Con(and hopefully getting his signature)!!! Loved working on this one, hope you guys like it too! Special thanks again to Thomas Healy on giving me the opportunity on this one. Also been a busy season/year…I realize it’s been a while since I’ve done a process vid…here you go! processvideo

The good folks at Fanbase Press were so gracious once again to carve out room for me and my work at one of the busiest San Diego Comic-Con Internationals EVER. Bryant asked some good (read: tough) questions to get to the core of my work, drive, the road ahead and all the stuff that keeps me up and night, but also can't wait to send out into the world. Always grateful to share the floor with this amazing crew and be in company of the Award-Winning work they put out with the best in the industry, while still making time to spotlight the rest of us. Check it out; I'm frazzled here...not at my best (was so tired), but certainly not at my worst I think :D Thanks again fam!

Cover Drop: Action Comics 1103 hits shelves October 14th, from the awesome creative team of Mark Waid, Patricio Delpeche & Chris Brunner! LEX LUTHOR: YEAR ONE BEGINS! He is Superman’s greatest enemy...he was Clark Kent’s school-age contemporary. He’s been the President of the United States...and the world’s most wanted super-villain. He is Lex Luthor- and this is his story. From the epic Action team of Mark Waid and Patricio Delpeche comes the definitive origin of the greatest criminal mind of our time...if you survive the experience. Thanks to Paul Kaminski and DC Comics for this slot to take on this particular villain with this particular suit :D Looking froward to getting this one out to everyone!
