Sunday Evening Art Gallery — Fabio Gomes Trindade

Fabio Gomes Trindade, a talented Brazilian street artist, creates stunning graffiti masterpieces by combining his detailed portraits with branches of trees and flowering bushes.The artist reportedly came up with the idea for this blend of street art and nature 10 years ago when he saw an acerola tree planted in the backyard of a humble house in the city. Interestingly, that same tree eventually became part of one of his most popular artworks.Whenever he starts work on a new project, Trindade first chooses the location of the artwork.The presence of lunch trees or flowering bushes is critical, as they basically make up about half  of the mural.The Brazilian artist uses graffiti to depict the faces and part of the hair of the portraits he creates, letting nature take care of the rest.When paired with colorful flowering trees and green leaves, the portrait has a full, beautiful coif. It’s a clever and charming way to combine elements of the urban environment with the natural one.More of Fabio Gomes Trindade’s marvelous wall murals can be found at https://www.instagram.com/fabiogomestrindade/.
