About Me

"CASTRO" was born and raised in the Sick Side to a mom named "Huera" and a dad named "Bony". Or maybe, just maybe he was left on the doorstep late at night by some Darkseeking, Tattooed, Zombie, Graffiti Ninja Clan. Needless to say he was brought up with art, ink, and chicano culture in his veins. Raised on GI-Joe, Transformers, Thundercats, He-Man, M.A.S.K., Silverhawks, Robotech, Voltron, Anime Movies, Graffiti, Breakdancing, Gang Culture, Gangster Rap, Punk Rock, , Rock & Roll, Metal, Rockabilly, Skateboarding, Art, Lowriders, Hot Rods and Lead Sleds, it was always his destiny to be a "Rock & Roll Gangster!"
At an early age CASTRO picked up crayons, pencils, markers, whatever he could find, to make his mark. His imagination ran wild as a child, creating weird characters and vehicles, and illustrating the fiercest "battles" that took place on a blank sheet of paper. CASTRO wishes someone back then would have taken an interest in what was going on in his head and what it would eventually become...
