Bio: MishCa Art and Craft House is a family-owned art project founded in 2018 in Bolton, ON, by new Canadians Iuliia Mishanina and Gina Cabezas.

Gina, the paper designer/maker, manufactures unique, organic papers with 20 years of experience in Ecuador. Iuliia, the artist, with her technical and creative skills acquired in Russia, paints on them using different techniques following meticulously each paper’s textures and colours. Their love for nature is reflected in their paintings on organic paper, which often feature landscapes and wildlife.

MishCa’s mission is to promote in the community the principles of reuse, reduce, and recycle, innovating and respecting the environment. Mishca offers workshops, lessons, custom paintings: landscapes, portraits, crafts, holiday/gift cards
