Regarding animals as subject matter, I am very passionate about nature and especially animals. I was born in Korea and have been exposed to Asian art all my life. I have always been impressed with its reverence for nature and by the vitality of its direct, spontaneous use of brush and ink. I try to incorporate these qualities in my work and focus upon gesture and movement as they express the essence and vitality of the subject.
