  Title: We are One
   Watercolor, 2023
   Size: 7 x 10 inches

The branches are hard, but you can feel the flow of energy. Energy accumulated over a long period of time is shown as a visible object like a tree. I have been drawing the shape of branches for a long time, paying attention to the shapes. The tree always maintained its shape in the same spot, even if it was constantly shaken by wind and rain, and sometimes collapsed or bent in heavy rain. I could read the strong vitality of our nature. And at some point, I caught a heart running on a tree and flowers blooming. I left this inspiration in my heart as a picture. This painting conveys the vitality of trees and the message that nature and humans are one.

  Title: My garden
   Watercolor, 2023
   Size: 7 x 10 inches

The concept of my paintings is to capture the energy of invisible objects. For this purpose, I mainly drew fish and birds with various movements. And I loved wood, which is hard and strong, but can feel the flow of countless energy inside. I catch on to this fluctuating, instantaneous, unartificial, improvisious energy. Because I believe that this energy makes things. One day, even a tool called a brush felt heavy for me to capture this kind of waving energy. So I picked up a balloon. I drew a momentary energy by drenching a balloon with paint and stamping it out. My garden and the garden series below are a feast of paint marks destined to be stamped out by the lightest objects. Through the beauty created by these marks, I know the natural beauty from our nature.

  Title: What happens if the wind blows
   Watercolor, 2023
   Size: 7 x 10 inches

I love the bright and warm energy of candlelight. The temperature of a candle is represented by yellow, but if it is simply expressed in watercolor, its temperature and warmth cannot be felt. So I wanted to express the cozy and simple beauty of these candles. This candle painting reminds me of the inspiration of white snow falling outside the window in midwinter and the whole house is dark, but bright yellow candles are shining brightly around. The candle is wish, energy that illuminates the darkness, and hope that illuminates the future.

  Title: The landscape with palm tree.
   Watercolor, 2022
   Size: 11 x 15 inches

What would a palm tree looking down on a hill alone think? We look at him and write poetry about loneliness. But he just stands there as he is. As we watch the setting sun and sunset before the dark night comes, he says greet to the little stars that shyly illuminate our faces. Nature stands there with its own shape and color. I am comforted by this grown-up look of nature.

  Title: The landscape with palm tree.
   Watercolor, 2022
   Size: 7 x 10 inches

Every time I see the colors of autumn, I am amazed at the wonderful work of the creator of the world. Orange, yellow, red and brown colors of autumn are not just colors but contain intense energy. Every time I feel the urge to put the colors of this fall on canvas. And I poured the colors of autumn onto the paper. I let the color flow to find its place. And I got one autumn scenery.
