Travel Goes Members-Only

I am...


Daniel Castro Maia, a Brazilian designer & illustrator based in Denver, CO.

During the day, I'm busy growing brands at Floresta Creative. At night, I illustrate for stories I'm passionate about. On weekends I fight crime with the help of my cat sidekick. Don't believe me? Here's proof. I studied Illustration at California College of the Arts in San Francisco.

Thanks for stopping by!
