June's Artist X: Mark Castator

The identity of June's Artist X revealed: Mark Castator



I met Mark a few years ago and have enjoyed getting to know him and learning his story. What is immediately evident when you meet him is that the man is an artist. He looks like an artist and, more than that, he lives like an artist. He reveals that he got his start after taking a sculpture course in college, a requirement that he was not initially excited about but found so intuitive and exciting that he immediately switched his major and never looked back. Mark has earned his living doing decorative and architectural steel pieces, but for years he has made the commitment to follow his passion and create art that is meaningful to him.
Mark's pieces can be found at Walker Fine Art in Denver and Winterowd Gallery in Santa Fe.
