A spirit of rebirth blossoms in the Living with Yuko series. Featuring a lively contemporary work by Japanese American artist Yuko Shimizu, this design brings a touch of whimsy to the Paperblanks collection. Shimizu's work combines her Japanese heritage with current cultural references, particularly comic books and graphic design.Shimizu first studied advertising and marketing before devoting herself to her dual passions of art and travel. Today, she works full-time as an artist, both out of her studio in Manhattan and around the world giving lectures and running workshops. May Yuko Shimizu's sense of reinvention inspire your own personal journey of growth, development and following your dreams.
