Most recently, Velasco brought his talents to southeast London for theLondon Mural Festival.

Painted in Brixton, his large-scale mural shows a local resident with a train passing behind him.

The young man depicted looks off to the side, lost in his own thoughts.

Velasco’s masterful painting balances the composition.

His loose brushstrokes bring the subject to life and create a realistic figure that isn’t overworked.

His piece is one of several new art pieces going up across the city for the London Mural Festival.
