HELLO AND WELCOME TO MY INTERNETS!

My name is Jason Castillo and I am an illustrator living in Chicago. As you can see (by clicking the little pictures on the left) I am pretty versatile in my style and technique. I can paint digitally, create pretty vector art, paint with traditional media and if you so desire, I can mix it all together. I'm also capable of print layouts and just about any design or art related project you got. So if you like what you see here send me an e-mail so we can create some artwork together!

If you see a famous logo or brandname in these illustrations, it's because some of them are from my student days. ...So don't sue me! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
