도자기 공예를 전공하고, 영국에서 식물화 과정을 수료하였습니다. 해외에서 10년을 머물며 쉼없이 그림 그리고 자원봉사하며 영감을 얻고 돌아와 현재 제주도에서 그림 그리며 살고 있어요.
자연스럽고 따뜻한 느낌의 꽃, 별 밤하늘, 동물, 풍경, 인물, 판타지 아트 등을 수채화, 아크릴, 유화, 색연필 등으로 작업하며 오직 손으로만 그려 우아하고 아름답게 정성들여 표현합니다.
단 한 컷의 그림도 투철한 장인정신과 책임감으로 그려드립니다. 품격있고 고급스러운 그림으로 큰 만족 느끼실 수 있도록 최선을 다하는 모습 지켜봐 주세요. 감사합니다.
