It is already December. I wish the pure side of the mind blooms with the hope of being ready to start a new chapter of life. This winter seems colder than ever because the pure joy of winter sentiment is interrupted by my anxiety about the Korean situation. The democratic system of Korea has become paralyzed under the corrupt regime. I would stand up for justice with sincere Korean citizens to make things right.  However, I strive to maintain my composure and hold onto the winter sentiment lingering in my mind. Apart from the anxiety in my mind, I reflected on the pure side through writing a novel, painting, and doing crafts. If I didn't have my artistic sensibility, I might have succumbed to anxiety over the situation happening in Korea. Acrylic Abstract Painting – “Homey Place” Although it may not have a specific form, colors gradually fill my mind, allowing me to envision a tranquil place. My homey place has flowers, trees, a blue lake, and a red roof. Imagining such a hom...

It is time to send away my lingering autumn sentiment at the entrance of the winter path. Before I jump into the sentiment in the winter mood, I leave my trace of autumn sentiment on my art, craft, and photos.  ‘Sunset’ - acrylics, conceptual art I expressed sunset in this art as this year is subsiding into the river of the memory. The streaks of light of the sunset leave their last reflection in the river. I look back on myself and listen to a voice from a tranquil flow, spreading in the wave of the river in my mind. I try purging and reorganizing my mind and spirit, expecting another sunrise next year as if I reassemble the puzzles. ‘My Planet’- a crylics, abstract, conceptual,  textured art The inner mind has a shiny rocky mountain, a river, and the universe with planets. The golden mountain, a river, and the universe unify and radiate energy. This harmony helps control the strength of the metal world, protecting it from the spoiled part of the world. French Embroidery - 'a...

S ummer fruits quench my thirst. Juicy fruits like a sweet watermelon cool me down in hot and sultry summer. P.S.: I designed a sky-blue scarf, a tumbler, and illustration cards in the photo below. I want to share my thoughts on social issues. These issues have not only happened to my country. It is an ongoing worldly matter, too. Before that, I express some aspects of true luck in my illustration of 'a four-leaf clover'. Four-leaf clover I illustrated a four-leaf clover that represents the inner aspect of luck. People in this period are used to seeking luck from external factors with wealth, success, and fame. But I approach another point of view on luck. In my illustration, I express some patterns of luck from wisdom, hope, faith, and passion, laying on strength, flow, rising, and sincerity. Tears of wise people will shine like jewels at the end with their luck.  Wisdom: Solving problems by putting shattered pieces (distraction) together in life.   Faith: Righteous faith l...

When I was young, I couldn’t understand why adult people said that May was a queen of seasons. May was just May when I was in childhood. My sensibility response has developed as I have become older. The scent of May knocks on my heart and inspires me in colors. Flowers are blooming with vivid colors of their own. Leaves on trees radiate deep green shades in abundance. Even faded plants have healthy colors and bear brilliant flowers. The best month for re-potting plants is the month of May. The weather is the most enjoyable. My attitude is gentle toward the nature of life I observe. I try capturing colors and scents the season brings. And I see how the best season inspires me. Here are my illustrations, tote bag design, expression in verses for May, and photos of wild flowers I took in May. Teatime Teatime after lunch is a valuable time to soothe my nerves. I rearrange my thoughts, plans, and motivations in me-time with green tea. The delicate fragrance of green tea makes me contemplate...

April was the month for cherry blossoms. I anticipated seeing cherry blossoms were able to survive a long time this month. Unfortunately, cherry blossoms were gone so fast, even before enjoying the beautiful days of cherry blossoms. Mr. Rain took their beauty without hesitation. I felt vain on a rainy day because wet petals fell from trees all over. I think hot and humid summer will be coming sooner than before. I pulled out French embroidery materials after a long time. I embroidered cherry blossoms on a piece of fabric. I am a person to express my sentiment in various ways. However, I have a white, little puppy. Whenever I looked at my adorable puppy, a little puppy gazed at me as if to tell me, “Be happy because I am with you.” I answered him, “Happiness is right here with us.” I want to share two illustrations and composing verses, and photos of my lovely puppy. French Embroidery "A girl holding a white puppy in the day of cherry blossoms."  I composed some verses for che...

I want to share the hanging dolls (heart and star) I made and some pics of the meals I cooked in March. Also, I want to introduce an NHK documentary film, ‘a granny mochi,’ over 90 years old. Her honest, warm-loving heart touches me in this materialistic world. Fabric Craft 'Heart and Star' I made hanging dolls with leftover fabric. I add some conversation on 'heart and star' regarding positive and negative emotions.  Heart:  How is your day going? Star:  I am fine. But I am afraid that sometimes my sensitive feeling affects a girl I protect, regardless of my intention. But she is also lucky because your love brightens her days. Heart:  I hope so. By the way, what makes you sensitive? Star:  Many people in the power class make the world tarnish and get worse. I am sick of their corrupted life disguised as success. Followers get brainwashed by corrupt people in the ruling class and even fake religious leaders. People in the power class trample upon human rights a...
