Hiro Hubbard is a Japanese American painter and explorer whose fine art and murals share a story of adventure and companionship to remind people that there is a whole world of friendship, beauty and mystery out there for those who choose to look for it. His work combines a background in design and communications with energetic representational, surrealist and abstract painting. Hiro currently lives in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland, where he returned after travels across the United States, building his career over the past decade. He first left Baltimore to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, FL. After graduating, he worked as a graphic designer and fabricator before transitioning to a career as a fine artist and muralist, a setting that allows for a fuller artistic expression. He creates paintings using acrylic paint applied with both brush and airbrush on canvas and custom handmade MDF panels. He also creates large scale murals using acrylic latex paint and spray paint. He has had two successful gallery exhibitions in Baltimore and has painted murals for a variety of arts festivals, public art programs and private clients across the east coast.
