The Kings and Queens of Castle Hill

A Boston family celebrates a birthday with a graffitti party.A young family embraces against a backdrop of graffiti.A local artist sets the background for his painting.Friends Natalie and Frank share a high five.Max, 10, relaxes after the steep climb up the hill.Spray-painted nightshade berries shine like crown jewels around the hill.
Artists wear masks to protect their lungs from paint fumes.An anonymous representative of SprAyTX looking sharp.College students enjoy the sun on top of Castle Hill.Yogis strike a pose as the sun sets over Austin.

My photo essay is the product of two exciting afternoons spent at Castle Hill graffiti park, talking to and photographing painters, viewers, families, and even dogs that add to the cool and quirky vibe of this unique Austin landmark. Enjoy!
