The new artwork was completed this week as part of a series of new murals called ‘Ephimeral Dreams’ with Argentine street artist Risa Art helping Nathaniel Wildstone to master the art of painting photo realistic portraits with aerosol spray. Peruvian-born Argentine artist Causi Art has also been helping Nathaniel with spray can techniques while he’s in Buenos Aires.

The details on the girl’s head include some eye-catching coloured beads and fine details capturing the hair and braids painted with spray paint.

The mural looks great with the girl blowing bubbles across the front door of the old house and the bright colours makes a great contrast with the white walls.

Nathaniel Wildstone said: “I have had an idea to create an image of a girl exactly like this one blowing bubbles for nearly 20 years now (digital design is at the end with original background), and have also wanted to do a large mural like this for over 10 years. It is a lifelong dream come true to work with and learn from some of the best artists in Buenos Aires.”
