recent work

I recently worked for Cricket magazine March issue cover art. There are many Japanese stories in that issue so I created this image to relate to the stories and celebrate the spring.

The Cup Story gallery cafe

There is a small and very special exhibition at The Cup Story gallery cafe in Jongro-gu Seoul. Two of my art prints are framed and showcased along with other picture book artists include Shaun Tan and Dongsung Kim. Today I visited this cafe with my editor friend who curated this show. We never have enough time for our endless conversation. :-) 
All of the framed art prints and mugs are available for purchase. If you are interested, you can also visit Soojung edition website. High quality limited art print from various picture books include some of my art prints from my book The Little Red Fish and Only a Witch Can Fly are available.
