About

Lisa Sugisaki was born and raised in the Greater Seattle Area. With a bachelors degree in Visual Art from Seattle University, Lisa journeyed to San Francisco to pursue a Professional Designation degree in Visual Communications at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising. She has spent the past 8 years as a visual merchandiser at Macy’s where she has had the opportunity to fabricate displays, style mannequins, merchandise home decor, and design and install vinyl decals.

Upon graduating, Lisa discovered a love for creating layered paper art and cards. In 2015 she created her side project, Cuts & Creases, and embarked into the world of commissioned artwork. With a strong belief in the power of fully handcrafted art, she thoughtfully sketches, cuts, and layers each piece by hand.

In her free time she finds enjoyment in crafting, baking, discovering the newest dessert destinations, and cheering on her hometown sports teams.
