Follow Your Dreams

Castro is a Redwood City–based muralist and North Fair Oaks native whose work blends Indigenous history, self-empowerment, and social justice. Drawing inspiration from Chicano art, pop culture, and the natural landscape, he creates under the concept “Anonymous Recipes” (Recetas Anónimas)—“Anonymous” reflecting the breadth of media and subjects he explores, and “Recipes” symbolizing the unique works that emerge.

Alongside his studio and mural practice, Castro teaches part-time at Summit Everest and leads art classes across the peninsula, highlighting the cultural impact of murals. Dedicated to community engagement, he volunteers to create affordable public art and welcomes commissions ranging from business signs and logos to custom artworks and traditional canvases.
