SS501 - Lois & 김규종

When I painted my SS501 series for SS501 members I would never ever expected to find myself adding another painting to this collection a year later. However, I decided to paint this one as a gift for my friend Lois, who is to date perhaps the most dedicated Triple S around, as a way to say thanks for always being there for me. The painting is very similar to the one I did for 김규종 as Lois' energy and nature are very similar to 김규종's and 김규종 is her favourite member. I truly hope 김규종 appreciates and cherishes her commitment because finding such a dedicated and devoted fans is simply a dream for any artist ~~ ㅋㅋㅋ
 
이 그림은 Lois에게 제 선물이에요~~

More paintings part of the Aura Series...

Last weekend I helped my friend Debora interviewing a musician for her academic research. Interestingly I found myself behind a canvas paintings a few more personalized aura inspired portraits... The first is that of the guy we went to interview, Erik ' The Viking' (what an interesting chap he was that one...). The second portrait belongs to Andrew, my friend's boyfriend, partner and love, who appeared to be quite intrigued by my art so I decided to paint one for him also.

One of my pieces will participate to this new art event organized by IAC at Gallery Golmok, Itaewon, Seoul, South Korea. If you are in Seoul, please come and have a look at it. Because of the theme of the exhibition this time I am not posting the image of my piece here in my blog (this has nothing to do with the fact I have totally forgotten to take a pic of it...~~
I shall let you enjoy the pleasure of discovering my artwork in person when visiting the exhibition.

City of Hope

Once again, another painting completed! This piece was commissioned by a friend that I met in Seoul earlier this year and who wanted something for her parents' wedding anniversary. I was asked to use a range of hunter green and burgundy colours and a black/straight/simple theme. Being my friend the kind of person that gives a buzz of enthusiasm and happiness to any person around her, I thought to paint a mystical city and decided to call it City of Hope. I found it really appropriate~~~ㅋㅋㅋ


City of Hope

Katrina, best of luck with your new career. 
May all your dreams come true (with the exception of one...he is mine!)

THE SECRET ART SHOW collection - revealed

It is with my great pleasure that I can immediately reveal my painting exhibited at The Secret Art Show (Oct 2011). The paintings in the exhibition went on sale today 7th Oct 2011 at 9am and my piece got sold almost immediately.
I would sincerely like to thank the person who bought my work.

Dawn (Dark)


The above work is part of a two-piece collection. The matching painting was sold earlier this year at the previous The Secret Art Show.
Here is the collection in full. I got inspiration for this work on a beautiful winter morning in Seoul when I went for a walk through the little park on the hill behind my house. The pieces are very tiny (12cm x 12cm as the artwork is to fit a CD case) and it is very challenging for me to creates minute details on such a small surface.

Two of my friends got married recently. I created this piece as a wedding gift for them


A sea of Happiness & Love

 to Sarah and Dave

The Aura Series

After taking a break from painting to go on tour with friends that play in a band and further gallivanting on my own, I am finally back in the UK.
Once again I find myself working on Auras portraits. The following pair are my first two private commissions since my return to the country. The last painting is slighly more elaborate than previous work because I had a full day to complete my sketch.
More to come...
