About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find my own long lasting happiness, learning from everyday life, travel, nature, people. And nowadays especially take care of baby.

ABOUT ME

I am open minded, creative. enjoy cooking and traveling.
I am married 2 years ago and I live with my husband Eric and one child, Soha who was born in 2013.
I am artist, and traveling around drawing landscape and watercolor drawing mainly about my feeling in everyday life.
For me, the nature and relationships are important.
I am learning and finding curious feelings and meaning of life in every moment.

PHILOSOPHY

Buddhism basically. Life is gift and every life is so precious, and the will of life make me live now and here. I feel coexistence when I am very clear mind, but mostly it scattered in front of too many things to choose. So I try not to have many things, not to have desire.
Live simple, find my own small happiness in everyday life, and feel the fulfillment from every thing that I have done. Empty my hands, and face the unknown future without fear. That is what I am training myself now :-)

My husband Chaeyoun (Eric) is film maker. Eric likes movie and day dream in positive way. He loves kids and play very well with them. He is very sensitive and calm. He like beer in the evening. And he like nature too.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like Horizon Zone(?) I am not sure the name of this series in English, Steven Spielberg directed, about 1980 maybe. I was addicted that kind of strange story.

I was a singer in music band 'Fortune Cookie', and you can here my band music in myspace

I did electronic music, we made our LP after we travel Brazil.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I found my lover and I got married.
I have my own family :)
I have baby girl named Soha.
I did huge public art program in seoul last 5 years, with thousands people, in many venues.
I was selected Young Korean Artist.
And realized I need time to find myself again all by myself not by selected other people. :-) That is the amazing thing I've done.

And the most amazing thing I've seen is hump back whale in pacific ocean, 2 bears in yosemite park, calm Jonny Lake at early morning,
smiling face all I 've met in my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have experiences using of water color, and indian ink and basic information about water base material. Also I have experiences how I can organize public art program( I did many times with Art Council in Seoul, and Incheon), also I know how we can ply together with our creativity relating with Art.
I can teach you drawing and painting or making.
I can show you how to cook Korean food.
I am learning meditation now. It is very good!
