Nakisa Seika
Nakisa was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1979. Her childhood was
spent going to museums and theatrical shows such as classical
and modern ballet, musicals, opera, theatre, and Kabuki. At the
age of 15, Nakisa knew she would leave Japan and pursue an art
education in the United States. She made arrangements and
accomplished her goal, arriving in the states at the age of 17 to
finish high school in upstate New York. After three years in
New York, Nakisa enrolled at the Atlanta College of Art majoring
in painting. She also studied sculpture, silkscreen printing and
lithograph.
Nakisa began working as an artist at Deljou Art Group after
graduation from college. Her first exposure to selling artwork
made her appreciate the unique artistic styles of her native
Japan. Nakisa had taken calligraphy courses in elementary
school as port of the normal curriculum. She hadn’t thought of
her skill with a Chinese brush as anything worthwhile until she
began work on the Oriental Gardens collection. The flowers
seemed to call for more powerful, yet simple and impressive
lines. Her skill with the calligraphy and knowledge of the Sumi-E
style created just the right feel for the pieces.
Her work is praised and collected nationally and internationally.
