About Dawn Nakashima

I love to build things and play with materials. I feed off of ideas based on what's going on around me. The outlets for my creative energies are constantly evolving. Most recently I've gotten involved with painting sets and providing props for theater productions. Cardboard and re-using existing materials are my favorite "go-to" mediums. It is baffling to live in a country whose government does not support the creative element of its culture. Art & Design is LIFE.

    Artist/Painter/Designer
    Nakashima Fine Arts 1985 - Present

    I work in mixed media, acrylic, and digital imagery. I like incorporating found and recycled materials in my work. I like the marriage of craft, beauty and ideas. I like to reflect on the here and now and hopefully it will be an honest record of the past when looked at in the future. I admire art that delights and amazes - and try to bring that to the work I do as well.My ideal job would be to work as a resident artist at a place that needs new ideas for a new technology (like 3-D printing) or ways to use reclaimed materials in an elegant and useful way.
