Gelson Lemus, Mini Mural

Gelson Lemus, Mini Mural

Gelson D. Lemus [w3r3on3] is a Guatemalan-born resident of Houston, TX who began creating art work at a young age. His art journey really took off in the late 90s when he was introduced to graffiti culture which has shaped his path from a graffiti artist to what he has now become, a self-taught "muralista." Per Gelson, the mini murals are projects chosen by different companies or organizations across Houston. Once an organization becomess interested in the art style and previous work of artists, they contact artists individually to propose new ideas for the mini murals. As Gelson added, the group hires the artists and tells them the theme they want conveyed in the mural.
