SUMMARY:Artist In Process | Juan Velazquez
DESCRIPTION:Though Frederic Remington and Charles Russell are known today as fine artists, both worked as illustrators throughout their careers. Our current exhibition, Remington and Russell in Black and White, features an array of both artists’ original greyscale works paired with their counterparts printed in magazines and books. In honor of FWADA’s Spring Gallery Night, the museum has invited local artist Juan Velazquez to paint in our galleries.
Visitors can stop by between 1:00pm – 3:00pm to see the artist in process as he paints canvases with black & white portraits of figures from Latin American history. Then explore the museum and enjoy the many black and white artworks by Remington and Russell on display in our current exhibition.
 
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Juan Velazquez is a talented mural artist based in Fort Worth, Texas. He began his mural painting career in 2020 and has since created over 150 murals across Texas, as well as in California and Colorado . His work is characterized by hyper-realistic style, often conveying emotions, Mexican culture, and historical concepts. Velazquez’s murals can be found in various neighborhoods, particularly in underserved and poorer areas of Fort Worth. Notably, he gained recognition for his tribute mural to slain U.S. soldier Vanessa Guillen, which garnered widespread attention and led to numerous commissions. His commitment to social justice and community engagement shines through his vibrant and impactful artwork.
