Week 6 MOCA


Kuniharu Shimizu is a Japanese artist that creates his artwork by using Adobe Illustrator. Shimizu obtained his BFA from the University of Hawaii, and originally created paintings by working from photographs. He decided to begin painting abstractly once he became bored with painting realistically. Shimizu began familiarizing himself with computer graphic programs and became hooked. Kuniharu is also well known for his haiku poems which he says also have an impact in his artistic creations. I have posted one of his works titled” Shadow of Her Shoes.”
