I am a 2-D mixed media studio artist based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, specializing in paintings and drawings. Creating two-dimensional mixed media artwork is a reflection of the diverse influences I have encountered as an adoptee from Korea, a student of traditional Western art, and a user of ubiquitous computer technology. Modern tools like digital cameras and photo editing tools allow me to creatively experiment in the digital age. I combine traditional art materials, such as paint and paper, in order to retain a sense of tactile authenticity. I use multiple layers and textural effects to depict ethereal dreamlike settings. I strive to create a sense of space even as I play with perspective in abstract ways. This page is a collection of selected paintings and drawings. Enjoy!
