Collected Works

Julian’s painting is very special for me. He did a custom piece featuring a special story about my solo row across the Pacific in 2020. We auctioned it on social, with proceeds going to a nonprofit that I run. Then I was lucky enough that the winner gave me the painting, and it’s been on my wall ever since

It was clear from the start that Julian puts all care into both his art and the buying process. The certificate of authenticity that comes with it is a valuable touch that verifies the piece’s history, and the whole experience was smooth and professional. I hope to have this painting the rest of my life.

I am the very lucky owner of 2 of Julian Castro pieces.

His art and the energy each piece exudes is something that I find breath taking! This sentiment is shared by many who see Julian's work. I first bought one painting and then could not resist in buying a second.

These mystical astonishing pieces have graced me with a dialogue, peace, gratitude, possibility... Words are not big enough to articulate how lucky I feel.

Julian's astonishing energy is reflected back to the world by his unimaginable gift. I hope each of us is as fortunate as I am having these phenomenal works!

​When Julian first offered his work for sale I found a painting that I loved. The painting is unusual because of the technique Julian uses to move the paint around the canvas and bring the painting to life!

The second piece I brought from Julian incorporates all the colors of the pastoral environment in which it was created.

Both paintings bring joy to my soul and I am pleased to have them in my collection!

My wife Susan and I own a lot of art. In fact, so many pieces that we can no longer display more than half of them as we recently downsized from a very large house to a very small apartment. Much of our collection includes work from internationally recognized artists but among the original art that we chose to display are two wonderful paintings that we purchased from Julian Castro.

Not only are these paintings beautiful, actually stunning, but doing business with Julian is an absolute pleasure. It’s easy to communicate with him, he delivered the art well wrapped, provided advice on placement, and complete documentation of authenticity. I would be happy to answer any questions from potential buyers and share any photos of our pieces. edmichaelson@gmail.com

I ordered a Castro while living in Hong Kong. My wife and I had a modest flat, and we hung the painting in our living area. I can't get over how much it elevated our space.

Guests comment on it literally every time we had people over. Julian delivered the painting quickly and in perfect condition after a long journey.

The piece is easily worth double what I paid, and we didn't have to think twice about bringing it with us when we moved home to NYC. Highly recommend this artist if his style meets your taste.

I recently had the opportunity to commission a piece of art, and I must say, it was an incredibly rewarding experience from start to finish. From the moment I reached out to Julian, I felt a genuine connection and excitement about the collaboration.

The initial consultation was enlightening. Julian took the time to understand my vision, preferences, and colors I hoped to capture in the artwork. We discussed style, colors, and vision, and I appreciated how open and receptive he was to my idea. It felt like a true partnership, where my input was valued and encouraged.

As Julian began working on the piece, he provided updates and sneak peeks, which heightened my anticipation. I loved seeing the evolution of the artwork and the artist's creative process. It was fascinating to witness how my vision was transformed into something tangible and beautiful.

When the final piece arrived, I was absolutely thrilled. The artwork exudes a captivating luminescence, enhancing the ambiance of the hallway beneath the pendant lamps. Its vibrant colors and intricate details seem to come alive in the soft light, creating a striking focal point at the end of the hallway. The glow not only draws the eye but also adds a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Overall, commissioning art with Julian was an enriching experience that not only resulted in a stunning piece for my collection but also deepened my appreciation for the artistic process. I wholeheartedly recommend commissioning artwork with Julian to anyone looking to add a personal touch to their space. It’s a unique journey that celebrates creativity and collaboration, and the outcome is a one-of-a-kind treasure to cherish for years to come.

I was fortunate enough to come across Julian Castro's work, and as I had one last bit of wall space left, I reached out and asked him to create a piece for me!

I gave him some simple key words…"gray, black, white industrial, and abstract".  

I was very impressed when he came back to me and wanted photos of the space where it would be installed and had additional questions and comments to assure he exceeded expectations and got the sizing correct!

He kept me posted during the process and actually sent me a video of him creating my new piece.

I received it today and loved hanging it up… It completes the space perfectly! Great impact!

Thank you so much, Julian!  You are a talented and creative artist!

My commissioned pieces from Julian were intentionally chosen as Dream Portals to bring the peace, wonder, and joy I was seeking in my bedroom.

I loved the conversations with him as we co-created these pieces of art.

Can’t recommend him highly enough, ultra-talented, huge heart for his craft, and driven to create art that his clients love. Can’t wait to put more original Castros in my home.

Before deciding to get a piece from Julian, he welcomed me into his studio so I could meet him and see his work in person. Once I saw his paintings in person, I knew I wanted one, but my favorite painting, Capricorn, was already sold.

Julian was able to create a new "Capricorn II" piece for me, and due to my schedule, he was able to have it done and delivered within a week... while the paint was still wet!

The piece matches the design of my home, compliments the rest of my collection, and is a beautiful reminder of Capricorn energy for my home. Working with Julian was a painless, fun, and professional experience.

Working with Julian was a smooth and pleasant experience!

After recently moving, we decided to purchase a special art piece for our new home, and after seeing Julian’s creations we knew we were talking to the right person! Julian delivered the Onda piece himself.

It fit in so perfectly into our home, tying together our color scheme and the beautiful views of the beach it overlooks.

We’ve been complimented on it numerous times by guests. We even setup a display light to bring it more to life.

We already have our eyes set on other pieces for future rooms in our home.

I love my piece from Julian. When I moved to Miami and got my first apartment, I decided to invest in art from local artists. I was immediately drawn to Julian’s pieces and style.

I came to see the work in person and connected with the piece I ultimately bought.

Julian was so easy to work with. He was communicative and responsive throughout the process. He delivered the piece and helped me decide where to hang it then hung it. Then we hung out and chatted and I learned more about his story and the piece.

I find that the way the light hits the ridges of the painting makes it look amazing from every angle.

Working with you on acquiring the painting was very smooth and easy. I found the video on how the painting was made to have been very interesting and helpful to my decision to buy it. The colors in person are vibrant, even more than in the video.

My son was an early purchaser of your work, and he brought you to my attention. I am delighted he did so and delighted with your work.

I commissioned a painting from Julian, and it was a great experience. I remember showing him the wall it would go on, and he drew inspiration from the place, room, and energy.

My painting was done on a custom-built canvas with a unique concave shape that adds movement and light, bringing elegance and serenity to my living space.

Julian is professional yet genuine, thinking beyond the physical pieces always giving them meaning beyond what greets the eye, his talent shines through in his work.
