The R2-KT Artists Month rolls on into July after a successful June, giving artists the chance to show off their work to a wider audience during these difficult times. Every day through out June, R2-KT focused on a talented artist of the galaxy, and now that continues into July with today’s artist of the day, Ivan Castillo.

“Star Wars and art have been a part of my life as far as I can remember. I describe myself as quirky and fun and always willing to talk to anyone and make friends.”

“My work is in Watercolor, Acrylic, Color Pencil and Markers, but one style that sets me apart is the use of Craft Foam to create “3D art”, best exemplified in my CAPTAIN REX piece. I also enjoy doing mash-ups, where I combine 2 different Pop Culture characters into one. I have published an original comic book titled “The Outer Worlds” with Award Winning writer, Brett Harris. Many of you may have seen my art at CELEBRATION 2019.”

“I updated design for Tshirts for ROAD SQUADRON (the cars that were on display in Chicago). I designed the T-shirt for SWAG CREW, and the “Star Warriors” patch which was very popular. This summer, I will be an art instructor at Washington College Academy in Tennessee.”
