Fireworks

Colorpencil

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

Colorpencil

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. 

Bear-woman

Charcoal

Drawing figure with imaginary story. Story is from Korean myth. Once upon a time, tiger and bear wanted to become a human. Upon hearing their prayers, Hwanung, son of Lord of Heaven, gave them 20 cloves of garlic and a bundle of mugwort, ordering them to eat only this sacred food and remain out of the sunlight for 100 days. The tiger gave up after about twenty days and left the cave. However, the bear persevered and was transformed into a woman. Bear-woman became Hwanung's wife and soon she gave birth to a son named Dangun. He is the legendary founder of Gojoseon, the first ever Korean kingdom. 

Best things that happened in my life
