a church building


This is a sketch of a church located at Bugahyun-dong, Seoul two weeks ago. The building was not big, but the vertical shape was impressive.

buying garlic

Last year I went to Inchon city for sketching. Under Mansuk overpass there was a seller of garlic. It was a season to buy garlic needed for a year. Because it was cool by the shade of the overpass, many villagers gathered to buy them. The garlic was tied by 50 heads.

people in street

electricians in pockets



I drew her near the entrance of zoo in the afternoon. All the snacks seemed to be sold out. The dog looked up at her waiting to go home.

There were many bicyclists in the plazaa of Seoul grand park. I sketched one of them.

in the construction field





On a day of April I went out for sketching. There was a middle scale construction at my village. I sketched several pieces. The workers in the bottom one were not belong to the construction but for the removal of old network in village. Their ropes on their belts and pocket car caught my eye. But it was difficult to capture moving figures. I washed these drawings on the spot because I kept painting gear.

people in subway



I thank passengers in subway always. They look very characteristic and fashionable sometimes. But common people have their own attractiveness. I love to draw them endlessly.

How about a Seoul Sketchcrawl in August?

지난 스케치크롤, 참 즐거웠습니다. 10월까지 다음 스케치크롤을 기다릴 수가 없네요.^^

유병화 선생님께서 8월 중에 서울 스케치크롤을 하자고 제안을 하셨습니다.
장소는 안국역에서 시작해서 북촌한옥마을까지로 생각하고 있습니다.
시간을 정하는 일은 어려움이 있을 것 같습니다. 저처럼 평일이 편하신 분들이 있을테고 주말만 가능하신 분들도 있을텐데 이번엔 평일 오전에 하기로 우리끼리(유선생님과 저) 마음대로 정했습니다.
함께 하실 분 계시면 덧글 달아주셔요. 8월 둘째 주나 세째 주 중에 어떤 시간이 좋은 지도 말씀해 주세요.

At the riverside of Han River


저는 늦잠꾸러긴데요 오늘은 아침 일찍 한강으로 산보를 갔습니다. 아침 공기는 조금 낯설면서 상쾌했습니다.
올림픽대교를 그려볼 생각이었는데 강물이 불어 산책로가 중간에 끊겨있더군요. 그래서 잠실철교에 가려진 올림픽대교를 그렸습니다.

at Jeung-reung, Seoul





Because it located near my house I could pass the village often. I went up to the top. The village was waiting for redevelopment. But I could feel nostalgia remembering where I had lived as a child.
