Julian Meland is an artist who takes his talent all over the world, creating huge murals in which mostly children appear.
He shares his creations on Instagram and helps elevate the mood of hundreds of thousands of followers.
The French artist, who is also known by the name seth_globepainter, is inspired by the country he is in and illustrations of children's books.
When he finishes the mural he takes a picture of the painting with the child who was the source of inspiration for it.
His work is full of color, innocent and fun and we are sure children will enjoy being a part of this wonderful creative process.
"I get inspired by the environment in which I paint", Julian says.
"It could be a social, cultural or political situation, or just the shape of the wall".
When asked how long it takes him to finish each piece, he says, "A small piece can take several hours and a large one can take 3 days to a week".
seth_globepainter, as he calls himself on Instagram, has been painting these murals around the world since the 90s.
His last two works addresses the quarantine lockdown as he tells his 239,000 followers to 'stay strong'.
The talented french artist has also published two books. One is called 'Extramuros' which features works from around the world from the last three years in which he has toured India, China, Mexico, Indonesia and Vietnam.
Like all great artists his murals have a deep meaning, but he leaves the viewer to choose what to see in his paintings.
