MINEKO YOSHIDA
Artist Statement
I come from a beautiful island of Okinawa in southern Japan, having grown up learning Japanese calligraphy. I came to the US to attend college and began learning painting in 1985. My work is heavily influenced by Japanese calligraphy as you see all of my work is basically drawing.
Mineko (Pronounced like “echo”) is an artist who creates one-of-a-kind works where the abstract manages to transport the viewer into unimaginable scenarios. Her painting abilities, knowledge, and passion have allowed her to become a talented artist.
