About the Item
Family Portrait by Leandro Velasco is an intimate and sensitively rendered oil painting that captures a quiet moment between a mother and her two children. Velasco’s warm, earthy palette and gentle, deliberate brushwork bring a sense of tenderness to the composition, highlighting the emotional closeness shared among the figures.
The mother’s composed expression and the children’s physical closeness create a scene rooted in affection, protection and familial unity. Velasco uses light and shadow with subtlety, adding depth and atmosphere while drawing the viewer into the emotional core of the work. The painting reflects his ability to elevate everyday domestic life into something timeless and evocative.
Leandro Velasco (1933–2023), a celebrated Colombian painter, was known for his ability to explore human relationships with nuance and sincerity. His mature style balanced realism with lyrical softness, often reflecting the cultural warmth and emotional richness of Latin American life.
Presented in a simple, elegant frame, Family Portrait is a moving and beautifully executed work, ideal for collectors who appreciate figurative art with emotional resonance and timeless appeal.

Leandro Velasco
"I was born in Colombia, South America and I arrived in New York City on November 23, 1963, the same day President Kennedy was assassinated. My dream was to be a working artist and live off the proceeds from my paintings. It was very difficult to be accepted, so I took a job designing stained glass windows, mosaics and sculptures and I painted in my personal time. Now, for many years, I am able to concentrate totally on my painting. I live on a farm in upstate New York and my studio is in a converted barn, along with my gallery. It is a great space to exhibit my paintings to prospective buyers. I have exhibited in this country and overseas, with shows in Paris, London, Venice, Belgium, Japan, and South America. My paintings always have a touch of humor." - Leandro Velasco
