Diana Castillo es una pintora que sigue el estilo surrealista de expresión conocido como  “automatismo”, que es el registro de imágenes que surgen en la mente del artista. Está inspirada por artistas como Roberto Matta y Kandinski.    Ha vivido y exhibido en Nueva York, Montecarlo , Madrid y ahora reside en Miami. Intenta expresar el subconsciente y los entes imaginarios o reales que existen en otra dimensión. Mucho de su arte es inspirado por los colores en su ambiente, cuando ha pintado en ciudades más oscuras los colores salen más brillantes, cuando está cerca del mar sus colores son más pasteles.
