LIFE BREEDS ART

Jerisa Macalino is a San Francisco-based visual artist and graphic designer whose work draws inspiration from street art, music, comics, her culture and her personal life.

At the heart of her creative philosophy is the concept behind Life Breeds Art. Before art is ever expressed as a sketch or painted onto canvas, it is first conceived in our personal lived experiences. No matter how mundane or complex. And there lies the beauty of art – the simple truth that life continually offers new inspiration with every moment we live. As evident in most of her work, Jerisa shares her own personal stories very much like a visual autobiography.

Since its inception almost two decades ago, Life Breeds Art has been more than just a place to buy prints, posters, or merchandise. It has served as a creative hub for Jerisa to share her artistic journey and experiences with others, inviting anyone interested to join the conversation and discover their own path to creativity.
