Portfolio > Jose Castillo

“Son of a son of an Artist” is how Jose Castillo describes himself.

Jose began painting peppers in 2019 for a yearlong series. He says, “What better way to bring the flavor of energy & joy to everyone than by painting a pepper a day for a year? That was 2019 & I’m still painting peppers!” In addition to artist, he is a host, MC, author, and creative.

You can see more of Jose’s work at Spark Plaza or at Juan Siao in downtown Johnson City.

Jose’s daughter, Olivia, contributed to a piece on the back wall in this show.
