Japanese-born translator Erika Hurst launches a new art collection connecting U.S. buyers with Japanese artists
GAINESVILLE, Ga. - Rezul -- This holiday season, Japan lovers can unwrap something unforgettable: custom portraits drawn by professional artists in Japan. The newly launched Japanese Portrait Collection transforms personal photos into manga, ukiyo-e, or sumi-e style illustrations, complete with personalized Japanese calligraphy of the recipient's name.
"For parents trying to find an authentic gift for their anime-obsessed child, it's hard to know what's truly Japanese and what's not," said Emma, Japanese-born film translator and founder. "This collection brings authenticity and confidence back, giving U.S. audiences a chance to own a piece of living Japanese culture."
Bridging Two Worlds
Erika, best known for her translation work on samurai films, built the project as a cultural bridge. Many Japanese artists remain hidden outside their borders due to language and logistical barriers, while U.S. buyers rarely know where to look. With orders placed entirely in English and shipping from within the U.S., the collection connects Japanese artists to a global audience while making authentic art seamlessly accessible to American consumers.
