1. What's your story? Where are you from?My name is Ji eun Lee, and Iโm from South Korea. Iโve started creating art when I was 9 years old. I studied jewelry and fiber art in college, but I realized that Iโm not really good at making something because Iโm not very careful and the fields I studied need perfect precision. Even though it wasnโt very successful with my major, I didnโt stop drawing in college. After graduate the college, Iโve been teaching kids at the art academy I was in since 9 years old, also working as a freelance illustrator. ์๋ ํ์ธ์. ํ๊ตญ์ ์ด๊ณ ์๋ ์ด์ง์์ ๋๋ค. ์ ๋ 9์ด ๋ ๋ฏธ์ ์ ์์ํ์ด์. ๋ํ ์ ๊ณต์ ๊ธ์ ๊ณต์์ ์ฌ์ ๊ณต์์์. ๋ํ๊ต์ ๋ค๋๋ฉด์ ๋ง๋ค๊ธฐ์ ์์ง์ด ์๋ค๋๊ฑธ ์์์ด์. ๊ทธ๋์ ํ๊ต์ ๋ค๋๋ฉด์ ๊พธ์คํ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๊ทธ๋ ธ์ด์. ์ง๊ธ์ 9์ด ๋ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๋ฐฐ์ ๋ ๋ฏธ์ ํ์์์ ๋งค์ฃผ ๊ธ์์ผ๋ง๋ค ์์ด๋ค์ ๊ฐ๋ฅด์น๋ฉฐ ์กธ์ ํ์๋ ํ๋ฆฌ๋์ ์ผ๋ฌ์คํธ๋ ์ดํฐ๋ก ์ผํ๊ณ ์์ด์.![]() 2. Tell us about your aesthetic.Mostly I draw actors, artists and models. One day, I really liked a snapshot from a movie, from that reason, Iโve been drawing actors. Also, looking at my favorite artistsโ work made me want to draw the artists. They are all protagonists in my drawing, from my enthusiasm. At first, to focus on the figures, the background was pretty simple, but now, Iโm more interested in filling background which makes the work more connected and storytelling. ์ ๊ฐ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋ ์ธ๋ฌผ์ ์ฃผ๋ก ์ํ์ ๋ฑ์ฅ์ธ๋ฌผ, ํ๊ฐ ,๋ชจ๋ธ์ด์์. ์ํ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๋ค๊ฐ ์บก์ณ ํ ์ฌ์ง์ด ๋ง์์ ๋ค์ด ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ ์์ํ๊ณ , ํ๊ฐ์ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๋ณด๋ค๊ฐ ํ๊ฐ๋ฅผ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ๋์ฃ . ๊ทธ๋ค ๋ชจ๋๋ ๋ด ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์์ ์ฃผ์ธ๊ณต์ด๊ณ , ์ ๋ ์ ์ ์ ๋ด์ ๊ทธ๋ ค์. ์ด๋ฐ์๋ ์ธ๋ฌผ์ ์ง์คํ๊ธฐ ์ํด ๋ฐฐ๊ฒฝ์ ์ต๋ํ ๋จ์ํ ํ์ง๋ง ์์ฆ์ ๋ฐฐ๊ฒฝ์ ๋ฐ๋ก ์์ ํ๊ณ ์์ด์.3. What is your favourite medium and why?Colored pencil and acrylic paint are favorite medium I mainly use. Itโs really easy to depict small details, so in my opinion, colored pencil is the most appropriate tool to draw the human face. With acrylic paint, I use it for the background or a simple still life ์ ๋ ์์ฐํ๊ณผ ํฌ์คํฐ๋ฌผ๊ฐ์ ์์ฃผ ์จ์. ์์ฐํ์ ์ ๊ฐ ๊ฐ์ง ๋ฏธ์ ์ฌ๋ฃ ์ค์ ์ฌ๋์ ์ผ๊ตด์ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋๋ฐ ๊ฐ์ฅ ์ ํฉํ ๋๊ตฌ๋ผ๊ณ ์๊ฐํด์. ํฌ์คํฐ๋ฌผ๊ฐ์ ๋ฐฐ๊ฒฝ์ด๋ ๋จ์ํ ์ ๋ฌผํ๋ฅผ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋๋ฐ ์ฌ์ฉํด์.4. What is your artistic process like?Before start to work, I look for some pictures because mainly my works are based on them. Even though itโs not from photograph that I took, by being transferred on the paper, it becomes mine finally. When I use colored pencil, I draw without any thumbnail or base sketch different with when I use acrylic paint. When itโs done, I scan my work to work on more on Photoshop. ์ ๋ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ ์ ์ ์ฌ์ง์ ์ฐพ์๋ด์. ๋ณด๊ณ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋ ์์ ์ด ์ฃผ๋ฅผ ์ด๋ฃจ๊ธฐ ๋๋ฌธ์ด์ฃ . ์์ฐํ์ ์ฌ์ฉํ ๋ ์ค์ผ์น๋ฅผ ๋ฐ๋ก ํ์ง ์๊ณ ๋ค์ด๊ฐ์. ๋ฌผ๊ฐ์ ์ฌ์ฉํ ๋๋ ์ค์ผ์น๋ฅผ ํ์ฃ . ์์ฑ๋ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ์ค์บํ๊ณ ๋ง์ง๋ง์ผ๋ก ํฌํ ์ต์ผ๋ก ์ถ๊ฐ ์์ ์ ํด์.5. Who and/or what inspires your work?Watching movies and photography inspires me a lot. They are perfectly composed art works by the director or artist with their passion in it, and I love reproducing them expressing with my style. Also my favorite artist is David Hockney. All of his artworks are amazing, and each pieces are inspiring me all the time. Heโs been making art during all his life, and I really like his great passion in art and want to be like him. ์ํ์ ์ฌ์ง ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ ๋ฐ์ด๋น๋ ํธํฌ๋์ ๋งํฐ์ค , ์ค๋์ํ ์ธ ์ฌ๋ฌ ํ๊ฐ๋ค์ด์์. ์ํ๋ ์ฌ์ง์ ๊ฐ๋ ์ ์ํด ์๋ถํฐ ๊ตฌ๋๊น์ง ์๋ฒฝํ ์ง์ฌ์ง ์ํ์ด์์. ๋ ์ฌ๋ฌ ์คํ ๊ณผ ๋ฐฐ์ฐ์ ์ด์ ๋ ๋ น์์๋๋ฐ ์ ๋ ๊ทธ๊ฑธ ์ ๋๊ตฌ์ ์คํ์ผ๋ก ๊ทธ๋ ค๋ด๋ ๊ฒ์ด ์ฆ๊ฑฐ์์. ๋ฐ์ด๋น๋ ํธํฌ๋๋ ์ ๊ฐ ๊ฐ์ฅ ์ฌ๋ํ๋ ํ๊ฐ์์. ํ ์ฌ๋์ด ์ด๋ ๊ฒ ๋ฉ์ง ์ํ์ ํ๋๋ ์๋๊ณ , ์์์ด ๋ง์ด ๊ทธ๋ ธ๋ค๋ ๊ฒ ๋๋์ฃ . ์ ๋ ํธํฌ๋๊ฐ ๋ฌผ๊ฐ์ผ๋ก ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋, ์์ฐํ๋ก ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๋ ์ ๋ถ ์ข์์. ํ์ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ๋ง ๊ทธ๋ ธ๊ณ , ์์ผ๋ก๋ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ๋ง ๊ทธ๋ฆด ๊ฒ ๊ฐ์ ๊ทธ์ ์ด์ ์ด ์ข์ฃ . ํธํฌ๋ ๊ฐ์ ์์ ๊ฐ๊ฐ ๋๊ณ ์ถ์ด์.6. What role does art play in your life? How does it change the way you view the world?Making art, now became my routine in my life like eating and sleeping. I hated few colors especially orange, purple and green when I was younger, and I remember I never used them before. However, Iโve found each different colorโs beauty and all they have good combination with other colors, and now, I can draw more various paintings with more creative color combinations. Since Iโve realized about different color combinations, Iโm trying to take few minutes to take photo when I find new and good color scheme in real life. ์ ์ ์๊ฑฐ๋ ๋ฐฅ์ ๋จน๋ ๊ฒ์ฒ๋ผ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ์ ๊ฒ ์ผ์์ด์ ์ผ๋ถ์์. ๊ผญ ํด์ผ ํ๊ณ ๊ผญ ํ๊ณ ์ถ์ ๊ฒ์ด์ฃ . ์์ ์ ์ ๋ ์ฃผํฉ ๋ณด๋ผ ์ด๋ก ์ด๋ฐ์์ ์ซ์ดํด์ ํฌ๋ ํ์ค์ ์ด ์๋ค์ด ์๊ฒ์ฒ๋ผ ๋จ์์์์ด์. ๊ทธ๋ฌ๋ ๋ง์ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๋ณด๋ฉด์ ์๋ง๋ค ๊ฐ์ง ์๋ฆ๋ค์์ ์ฐพ์์ด์. ๊ทธ๋์ ๋ ๋ค์ํ ๊ทธ๋ฆผ์ ๊ทธ๋ฆด ์ ์๊ฒ ๋์ฃ . ๊ทธ ํ ์ข์ ์๊ฐ์ ๋ณด๋ฉด ๊ธฐ๋กํ๋ ค๊ณ ํ๋ ์ต๊ด์ด ์์ด์. ์ฃผ์ฐจ์ฅ ๊ธฐ๋ฅ ํ์ธํธ ์์กฐํฉ์ด ๋ง์์ ๋ค์๋ค๋ฉด ์ ๊น ์์ ์ดฌ์ํ๋๊ฑฐ์ฃ .![]() 7.

What about in ten?In ten years, I hope that I can have my own design company which I can work with people in. so that we can make good designs and products together which would be little hard to do just myself. The reason is I think working with people is challenge, so I could learn from that, and also we could make better quality of results by motivating and inspiring each other. 10๋ ํ ๋ค๋ฅธ ์ฌ๋๋ค๊ณผ ํจ๊ป ์์ ํ ์ ์๋ ๋์์ธ ํ์ฌ๋ฅผ ๋ง๋ค๊ณ ์ถ์ด์. ํผ์ ํ๋ ๊ฒ๋ณด๋ค ๊ฐ์ดํจ์ผ๋ก์จ ๋ ์ข์ ๋์์ธ์ด ๋์ฌ๊ฑฐ์์. ๋ค๋ฅธ ์ฌ๋๊ณผ ํจ๊ป ์ผํ๋ ๊ฒ์ ์๋ก์ด ์ผ์ด๊ณ , ๊ทธ๊ฑธ ํตํด ๋ฐฐ์ฐ๋ ๊ฒ๋ ๋ง์๊ฑฐ์์. ์๋ก์๊ฒ ๋๊ธฐ๋ฅผ ๋ถ์ฌํ๊ณ ์๊ฐ์ ์ค์ผ๋ก์จ ์ข์ ๊ฒฐ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ง๋ค๊ฑฐ์์.10.

I love that I can keep the feeling of child by watching them. ์ด๋ฆด ๋ ์ํ ํ ์ด์คํ ๋ฆฌ๋ฅผ ์ข์ํ๋๋ฐ, ๊ณ ๋ฑํ๊ต ๋ ์น๊ตฌ์๊ฒ ํ ์ด์คํ ๋ฆฌ ์ฐ๋์ ๋ฒ์ฆ๋ฅผ ์ ๋ฌผ๋ฐ์์ด์. ๊ทธ ํ๋ก ์ญ ์ธํ์ ๋ชจ์ผ๊ณ ์์ด์. ์ฃผ๋ก ๋์ฆ๋ ์ฅ๋๊ฐ๊ณผ ๋นํฐ์ง ๋ฐ๋น์์. ๋นํฐ์ง ๋ฐ๋น๋ ์ฃผ๋ก ์ ๊ฐ ํ์ด๋ 1990๋ ๋์ ๋ง๋ค์ด์ง ๊ฒ๋ค์ด๋ผ ์ ์ ํ์ด๋ ํด๊ฐ ๊ฐ์ ์ธํ๋์์ด์. ์ด๋ฆด ๋ ๋ณด๋ค ์ฅ๋๊ฐ์ด ๋ ๋ง์์ก์ฃ !15.
