Biography
Daneziel Rolf Pesquera, known in creative circles as ZeFellowBud, is a Filipino digital illustrator and concept artist born on November 24, 1998, in General Santos City, South Cotabato. A self-trained artist with over a decade of experience, Daneziel is known for his clean, detail-oriented visual storytelling, often grounded in science fiction, biomechanical design, and grounded urban realism.
Fluent in both Filipino and English, his early inspirations for entering the field of arts included the works of Yoji Shinkawa, Kim Jung Gi, and perspective illustrator John Hathway. Over time, his influences have evolved to include notable online artists such as Por-Forever, Rythaze, Venommoe, and Binkiebased, whose approaches have informed his evolving style and creative philosophy.
Primarily working in Procreate, with occasional use of Poseit for 3d reference and Blender for 3D experimentation, he’s built a solid freelance career designing character and armor concepts for worldbuilders, writers, and hobbyists across platforms like Twitter and Discord. His specialty lies in crafting visually grounded yet imaginative designs—often integrating mechanical precision with personality and storytelling.
Beyond commissions, Daneziel aspires to publish and release original multimedia works set in his own fictional universe. Central to that vision is a desire to artistically explore and reinterpret Filipino culture—especially the overlooked and mundane. His creative goals include visualizing familiar elements like sari-sari stores through a fictional lens, incorporating okir motifs, and borrowing from skeuomorphic features Filipino-Spanish architecture in to enrich his settings with heritage-inspired design language.
With a grounded worldview and a future-oriented creative vision, ZeFellowBud continues to carve out a distinct voice in the evolving digital art space—bringing personal narrative, cultural reverence, and visual clarity into everything he creates.
