Artist Tony Sandoval Treats Watercolour As Weather — Rain, Mist And Stains That Roll Across The Page

Tony Sandoval is a Mexican illustrator and comic‑book artist based in Europe, known for dreamy, slightly macabre watercolours where big‑headed kids, ghosts, monsters and fish riders drift through melancholic landscapes.

Alongside his well‑known graphic novels, he keeps releasing self‑published fanzines under the “Rain of Doom” name and fills sketchbooks with quick pencil and ink drawings, then revisits those ideas in finished watercolour and acrylic pieces like his ongoing “yellow fish” and “weird animals” series. His Instagram mixes loose sketches, process videos and finished illustrations, often tagged #fishrider and shared by art communities like SuperAni, positioning him as a cult favourite in contemporary dark‑fantasy comics and illustration.
