Artist Bio
Sheena Hisiro has been drawing since she could hold a pencil. She currently lives in Brooklyn, where she is still drawing and loving every minute of it. She earned a BFA in Communications Design from Pratt Institute. She recently illustrated a children’s book that is being released this summer and is very excited about it! She is currently working on a greeting/gift card line featuring limited color palettes, floral prints, patterns (lots of stripes), detailed line work, and little hand-made envelopes to match.

Artist Statement
The complexity of the art world is curious, it has spawned many different artists in so many directions in the last century. Looking back I discovered that the direction I related to is “. . .free art from the burden of object.” — Kasimir Malevich. I appreciate the pure and simple aesthetic and I have always related to a spontaneous approach to painting and printmaking.
