1. What's your story? Where are you from?

Hello? I am Zia Jung, who is working as an illustrator in Korea. I am drawing with the artist's name 'MintSummer'.

After majoring in Visual Communication Design at University, I worked as a motion graphic designer for quite some time and now I am working as a freelance illustrator.

I liked the motion graphics work that gave movement with technical techniques, but I listened to the inner voice of wanting to focus more on my own painting world.

So I decided to become a freelance illustrator. Drawings have been steadily drawn since childhood, and life without pictures is hard to imagine.

2. Tell us about your aesthetic.

Inspired by nature and everyday life, the focus is on a variety of beautiful color combinations, textures, and layouts.

3. What is your favourite medium and why?

I prefer digital work. This is because you can mix brushes and textures, and you can freely modify colors and shapes and experiment in real time while working. For these reasons, I think it's very practical for clients that need to be able to deliver high quality results on time. But sometimes I miss something analog, so I do it manually when I have time. Certainly, there is fun and excitement that is different from digital work.

4. What is your artistic process like?

Both personal work and commercial work with clients start with an idea sketch. Sometimes I draw with paper and pencil, and I sketch in Procreate. Various images that were collected in advance are helpful for ideas. If you are satisfied with the idea, I paint and finish in Photoshop or ProCreate.

5. Who and/or what inspires your work? 

In fact, artists think that everything they see and hear is affected. So I try to have as many experiences as possible even in my busy daily life.

I am most inspired by travel and nature. I like to care for and observe a variety of plants, and I love animals. So, it appears as a material in my work. I am also deeply inspired by new stimuli (scenery, people, food culture, etc.) from my travel destination.

Through social media, I can easily access and influence the works of many artists around the world.

Going to the exhibition is also helpful. Seeing the works of other cool artists in real life, not on the Internet or in books, is a big resonant in my heart. In fact, when I went to the exhibition hall to appreciate, I was really impressed and surprised by Henri Rousseau's β€œThe Snake Shaman." I saw it when the 'Orsay Museum' works were invited to Korea, and the wild and exotic... primitive… I was choked by the overwhelming atmosphere that could not be explained in words, so I kept looking at it for 40 minutes (I think I would have appreciated it more if I had time). If I visit France, I definitely want to see you again.

In addition to this, I like Henri Matisse, Edgar Degas, David Hockney, Dahlov Ipcar, and Emily Sutton.

6. What role does art play in your life? How does it change the way you view the world?

Art makes not only me but our lives fragrant and beautiful. How many things in the world have no artistic elements added?

I am happy to be able to express my thoughts, feelings, and tastes with paintings, the way I can do it. I think artists have the ability to see 'special' even in small and ordinary things.

8. Where do you see yourself in five years?

I hope to open my studio and work on cool and fun projects with my pets. I wish I could live as an illustrator who achieves a good balance between work and life. If there is an opportunity, I would like to live in another country for a certain period of time, spend time on personal projects, and live a true β€œdigital nomad” life.

11. Now, tell us a little more about you as a person: what is your favourite food?

There are so many delicious food in the world that it is difficult to choose just one, but um… I love fruits and seafood dishes. Whenever I travel to other countries, I like to discover and enjoy new flavors. I have traveled to many countries such as Europe and Asia, but seafood-based food made with various ingredients that I had tasted on my trip to Thailand were very good. Of course, the tropical fruits were great too. Especially, I remember the moments of the joyful cooking class I experienced in Bangkok. I also remember the octopus and cod dishes I had in Greece and Spain.

12. Favourite book?

I like 'The Catcher in the Rye' and 'The Lord of the Flies'. I like the psychological description of the various inner aspects of human beings. The two classic novels are fun and interesting no matter how much you reread.

15. If you weren't an artist, what would you be?

I think I want to become a botanist, ornithologist, and a novelist. In particular, novelists are published as books, and I think it's wonderful to be able to produce movies or dramas later.
