Bio Pic of Saya Norton

Massachusetts based artist, Saya Norton, interweaves themes of culture, identity, and the natural world through her illustrative visual storytelling. Her signature style is a harmonious blend of vivid saturation and subtle plays of light, fusing elements of realism with loose brushstrokes to create a world where reality and fantasy coexist. Inspired by self-expression, a fascination for life forms, and her own Japanese-American heritage, her work is an exploration of the intricate connections between individuality, cultural roots, and the profound beauty that exists all around us.

I’ve always been very passionate about skincare. Growing up with acne made me want to learn to take better care of my skin. I attended the American Academy of Health and Beauty in Manchester, NH. I’ve always been interested in holistic healing, skincare, and more. It’s truly my dream job to be able to give holistic services at The Voice of Clay!
