JUSTINE VELASQUEZ (Philippines, b. 1981) is currently working as a Senior Landscape Designer in an international company in Hong Kong as well as pursuing a part-time career as an artist. He has been creating art since childhood and even used his talent to earn some money when he was in secondary school and accepted projects in poster making, editorial cartooning and mural painting. His passion for painting stopped when he entered the corporate world. But in 2019, he began to revive his passion for art to relieve his stress.

Velasquez discovered the fluid art form and he progressed into resin painting and now predominantly works with epoxy resin. His fearless approach is unorthodox and audacious, rarely using an easel or a brush. Most of his works involve flow art technique, naturally and controlled. His background in landscape architecture reflects in his works from landscape and seascape scenes, abstract figurative forms, and topography. Most of his works are done on wood boards, round boards, wood slab, clocks, canvas, mirrors, trays, and the like. Aside from regularly joining local exhibitions, he has participated in international fairs in Hong Kong, Singapore and United Kingdom.
