About Chirofish

Chiro is an Asian American artist from the Pacific Northwest region of the US, who always loved making art growing up but didn't think she could actually make a career out of it until having an eye-opening experience with vending at Artist Alley at an anime convention.

After having a first experience vending at an anime convention selling fanart during university, Chiro found the experience of making and selling art as a small business amazingly fulfilling and gratifying. She eventually shifted from fanart into doing original designs for apparel, bags, accessories, and more. Chiro loves making things that are both cute and still have practical aspects, especially things themed after bunnies and cats. Eventually what started as a hobby and a way to earn side income became an entire full time small business.

Chiro especially loves making designs that embody her ideal of "living colorfully", or actively experiencing and taking action to go through life in a way that feels vivid, expressive, and the way you most want to be. 

"Why is it chiroFISH when there are so many bunny designs??"

"I was having a branding crisis, otherwise known as "picking a username when I was a lot younger and then realizing later changing names would be hard so I stuck with it". You all have had the exact same experience with the email addresses you made in middle school, you cannot hide from me."
