About
Elisa "Ellie Mar" Castro
Hello world!
I'm Ellie :)
I love creating a wide range of things using my own free-range hands, making a variety of personal and commissioned work. The majority of my work is illustrative and colorful. I enjoy creating graphics that display my unique experiences involving mental health topics and advocacy.
​
Growing up in Los Angeles and living in the Bay Area has given me heaps of experience with traditional and non-traditional art making. I attended the Ryman Arts program at the Otis College of Art and Design, receiving a Scholastic Art & Writing Award from the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers.
​
I am in my senior year at the University of California, Berkeley, earning two BAs in art and psychology and a certificate in design innovation. I hope to continue studying the intersection of art making as evidence-based therapy and implementation methods in clinical settings.
​
I look forward to working with you soon!
