Hisako Furukawa
Hisako Furukawa is a native of Japan, and graduated with a master's degree in Art from Nagoya University of Art. She specializes in oil painting, and has had several showings of her work while living in Japan. In 2001 she moved to Portland, and also had several Portland area shows. Hisako is inspired by the greenery of Oregon, which is very different from Tokyo, and feels that her art has grown since coming to Portland. Her nature inspired paintings reveal her fanciful art style, as she brings color and whimsy to flowers, plants, and birds.
