Federico Archuleta, also known as El Federico, is an Austin, Texas-based graffiti artist who has created several notable murals in Austin.[1]
Archuleta draws on his Catholic upbringing as a first generation American in creating his works, including Lets Band Together and Virgen de Guadalupe.[2][3] Most prominent are the stencil-graffiti portraits of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, the Clash and others on the old Tower Records/Varsity Theater building, as well as his portrait of Bob Dylan on the Hole in the Wall.[4][5]
He generates and creates ideas for his art in his garage which in turn is used for the public. He uses a stencil for his sketches and his ideas for his drawing career. In which his work is influential in Mexican pop culture. [6]
He was commissioned by Jarritos to create some murals in southern California.[7]
