Adrian Castrejon is better known as Spider to his friends, customers, and his fellow artist. At a young age, Spider taught himself how to draw. His older brother who drew a lot of pencil sketches of faces and comics, influenced Spider so much that he started to do lifelike sketches of faces, eyeballs and lips. Spider spent countless hours perfecting his skills after school and during the weekends. At the age of 20, while Spider walked home from work, he saw Elizer airbrushing a mural on a lowrider and from there he was hooked on that form of artwork. After watching Elizer for a few months, Spider decided to purchase an airbrush kit. Soon he started to airbrush many car club cars in Orange County, California. After working a few years in different shops, one day he saw his homeboy with a new tattoo and was amazed by the reality of it. At that moment Spider knew that he wanted to take his artwork to another level. So he hit up a few tattoo shops where one finally gave him a chance to see how tattooing was done. After learning a few tricks of the trade, he purchased his first tattoo machine and started tattooing at home. After building his tattoo portfolio, he hooked up with Steve Soto from Goodfellas Tattoo and started working with him full time. Now Spider keeps busy by doing custom tattoo work on his clients and collectors from around the world.
