About Shiho Pate

Shiho Pate (pronounced Sheeho Peit) started her career as an artist for several indie gaming studios in NYC.

Now, with her recent move to Southern California, she has turned her focus to breaking into our industry. With a playful, bold style that combines all of her talents using sumi ink, pencil and digital media – Shiho creates both warmth and a kind of simplistic imperfection in her Work that is both endearing and enduring. Support and inspiration comes from her daughter and her husband. Shiho is also the artist behind the whimsical mural featured in Southern California Children’s Museum’s Story & Craft exhibit!
