I Am Always There For You

For my little sister, watercolour, YEJI KIM

In my recentpost, I shared with you that I love painting my own Christmas cards for my beloved ones. This card is painted for my little sister, telling her that I am always there for her. I´m so grateful having a sister and that she is my sister. People are always assuming that 5 years age difference is something that can sunder us in some way but we never felt any age difference and we have been always best friends.

Holiday Tradition

Poinsetta, watercolour, YEJI KIM

One of the things I love most about this time of year is preparing Christmas gifts for my family and wrapping all of them, painting Christmas cards for each person I love, making advent calendar on my own for my beloved one. We also tried to start some of our own traditions this year – baking up a storm of sugar and butter cookies in all the festive shapes and sizes and having holiday dinners which was really fun and made us full :)

Can´t wait to give my Christmas cards and share the cookies with our beloved ones!
What kind of holiday traditions do you have?

Hello Dear

Hello Dear I & II, oil on canvas, Nov. 2015, YEJI KIM

I am delighted to present my recent work, my two lovely Bluefin Trevallies: They were protagonists of my last blog post, who challenged me a lot but they made me also happy while painting them. I was excited and even impatient to bring them full of live and glance, happiness accompanied me except (I admit) when I had my “inner crisis”. 

I was inspired by the diverse pure blue tone of colours depending on light exposure. Bluefin Trevallies are aggressive hunters in our oceans but as every living creature has its good side, I intend to capture their colours which appeal to me personally full of kindness and cheerfulness that nature has created. The colours and luminous effect are expressing their joyousness; this couple of Bluefin Trevallies is token of friendship and respect for beauty that nature embodies.

There Is No Escape

No Escape I & II, Acrylic and ink on cold pressed paper, 50x40cm, Oct. 2015, YEJI KIM

Human being has always been striving for enhancement in every aspect: monetary as well as socially. The extension of this phenomenon became out of control so that the existence of nature is now not only jeopardized but losing their existence.

The shadow of the ink behind fluorescent background depicts the untouched nature, when turning the perspective, skyscrapers are outlined creating sinister atmosphere.
