Colors In Line
As an expression of the firmness of its existence within certain limits as a rule which must be obeyed so that it is considered a limiting space not free to move in all directions. The colors at each boundary line give the impression that has not been channeled. The feeling of revenge is shackled in a longitudinal line. Or the color of light brown, peach, blue, orange, yellow in other parts implies a limitation that is limited by the line.

Twilight On The Cliffs
The irregularity of Diego’s painting with a mixture of palette knife scratches depicts on a high cliff in the area of Flores, East Nusa Tenggara with bright color strokes displayed not mingling. He made each color independently. But it does not leave the aesthetic and artistic of beauty that actually shows harmonious colors that are pleasing to the see.

The Way of Peace I
On this painting, Diego expressed his feelings about world peace among religions through the beliefs/teachings that he believes about the peaceful life of fellow human beings. This painting is very expressive with softer color scratch such as spills over dark colors in the background giving an impression that is both impressive and expressive.

Gethsemane Garden
Emotional and dramatic. Diego describes the Gethsemane Garden with some bright colors and  soft dark colors. There is a pull of a line that uses the strength of the his knife that is swept as the release of the emotion that is ventilated on the canvas. Gethsemane Garden painting are very impressive for him, but sometimes, he does a imagination of behind the canvas. Inspired when he browsed from YouTube about traveling to Gethsemane Garden.

Spin Monster
Choice of dark red and blue color combinations and just bright colors, adding to the dark and mysterious. But this is one of the characteristics of outsider art. There is no interference from other parties to express expression, that is, what is experienced and seen by Diego, because he has a “private world”. It is not easy to understand because this work cannot be matched with reality. Inspired after watching a tornado sweeps the US, making this tornado spin was his inspiration.

In The Cage
Life offers things that are completely under our control and things that are completely out of our control, but there are choices. In Diego’s painting seems to depict us completely independent creatures with free will in determining our own way is not shackled.
