Hi! I’m shawnee
I am an artist in San Francisco.
For me art is a universal language for expressing feelings too nuanced for words.
I illustrate to engage playfully with emotion and stress.
My illustrations serves as an expression of identity and is an invitation for others to witness life through my eyes.
I love connecting with others - please feel free to reach out and we can chat about all things art!
MY ART & RIJI studios
I draw to my whims, sometimes it’s silly and colorful, sometimes it’s dramatic and melancholic. RIJI (日记 - rìjì) means diary in Chinese, and that is exactly what my art is, an expression of my mood when words just don’t quite do it.
