About the Artist
Steven Espinoza
@Stevendonespinoza
A born and raised El Pasoan, Steven moved to Colorado to pursue a Bachelor's Degree of Fine Arts in Illustration at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design. He returned to his hometown with hopes of giving back to the community that paved the way for him as an artist. Since working with Chuco Relic in 2023, he's felt a sense of accomplishment seeing fellow El Pasoans love and wear his work with pride. Ask him about his designs!
Ursula Avila
@URSHFISH
A self-taught artist, Ursula studied a Bachelor’s in Biological Sciences at UTEP and started working in graphic design during COVID in 2020. Ever since, she’s re-found her passion for art while designing for Chuco Relic!
Why Urshfish? A walking Darwin fish is the symbol for evolution, so it’s a nod to Ursula’s science background- with the Urshfish holding a pencil instead
