Surfing

I'm taking a watercolor class at Laney college in Oakland for the second time. The first time, I learned the basics: color combinations, color values, painting round shapes, painting outdoors, and etc. This time, I'm practicing wet-in-wet technique with watercolor. It creates a beautiful color mix and simplify the objects. It works well with natural elements such as trees, ocean, water, sky. Adding some small touches and details at the end makes the painting look more alive!

Fireworks

Most recent work of mine! I took considerable amount of time to be inspired and draw the fireworks. I am very satisfied with this drawing!

Summer time

Colorpencil

I wanted to express summer in abstract way. I love drawing geometric shapes and play with vibrant colors! My boyfriend said it feels like going swimming at beach, and that it reminded him of beach towels!

Popsicles

First summer in California was hotter than I expected and popsicles always refreshed me!

Autumn is coming

Colorpencil

This is called 'Autumn is coming'. This drawing is for the 2017 calendar project! In Korea, where I come from, they have 4 season and Fall is my favorite one. In Fall, the mountain turns in various gorgeous colors.  

Animal Extiction

Watercolor, colorpencil

Animals in this drawing are either extinct or endangered in California. All the animals are the real owners of the land and they are watching us silently, while we, the viewers, are interrupting their way of life.
