-Statement-
“I paint like the wind is leading the clouds “
I paint the natural phenomenon of rhythm and harmony that continues to flow within me.
For example, the patterns, colors, shapes, and energies created by the sky, clouds, sea, waves, forests, mountains, trees, rocks, stones, and soil. They are a harmony of lines, colors, shapes and energies. Each simply expresses its own phenomenon without interfering with its nature or the laws of nature.
I will pursue it through the process of painting.
It's about how much I can paint naturally without using my brain and resisting.
The sensation of the moment the brush touches the canvas also directly affects the taste of painting. A new series will be born according to the tool, medium, background color, size and shape.
