About Shiso Paper

Hi! My name is Sara, the owner and the artist behind Shiso Paper. I have a background in scientific illustration and I have always had a strong interest in the beauty of urban wildlife around me. Working in the corporate world for a number of years, my desire to explore and paint the natural world helped drive me to create Shiso Paper and share my love of art, stationery, my two shiba inus and the wildlife all around me where I find inspirations from every day.

On any given weekend, you might also find me in a local garden center, trying to find any plants in need of rescue.
