Fernando Velez creates striking sketches that teleport you to lands far away.
A bold red door stood before me, heavy with rich color, and I wondered what sort of adventure laid behind it. Fernando Velez’s illustrations freeze a place in time and a single memory becomes immortalized forever.
Laid in heavily structural lines are deliberate and dark. Yet they seem to wisp into nothingness around the edges, just as memories often do. Fernando’s work references his memories from the places he has traveled and the people that are present as player on the great stage of life.
Make your way to the hallway furthest from the entrance to see a selection of his illustrations digitally colored and boldly framed. Each piece shares a sense of dark mystery and similar heavy hatch marks.
Though California is currently his home, the world is his playground. Originally from the province of Seville, Spain Fernando Velez is a world traveler and a passionate explorer.
Seville is the only river port in Spain. Perhaps he developed his drive to explore new places and meet new people from his experiences in this ever changing metropolis situated along the River Guadalquivir.
Come get a glimpse of his adventures through his work on display in the Green Office Furnishings gallery.
