GASTON THE PAINTER

I’m Gastón — a self-taught multidisciplinary artist with a deep love for letterforms and visual language.

My journey has led me through the worlds of graffiti, calligraphy, sign painting, type design, photography, and education. What ties it all together is a fascination with how letters carry meaning — across walls, windows, cities, and cultures.

I embrace the journeyman tradition: working with my hands, traveling with my tools, and exchanging craft and knowledge wherever I go. I’ve shared my work through workshops and talks in cities around the world, always seeking to merge vocation with movement, and tradition with expression.

My goal is simple: to create meaningful, lasting work — and to share what I’ve learned along the way.

WHAT I DO

SIGN PAINTING

Hand-painted signs with character, precision, and a touch of old-school craft. I create custom lettering for storefronts, windows, walls, and more — all tailored to your business’s personality and space.

MURALS

Large-scale, hand-crafted artworks that transform spaces and tell stories. Whether for public walls, cultural projects, or creative campaigns, I design and paint murals with strong visual identity and human warmth.

WORKSHOPS

Engaging and hands-on workshops for creatives of all levels. I teach practical techniques, share insights from the craft, and create a space for people to explore lettering as a form of expression and design.
