The beginnings



I decided that the first post about my works should have presented my beginnings in dancheong style. The photo pasted above shows my three earliest works. The fourth one (the first from the left side) is a little bit later painting..

All four pictures were painted by temperas on pine wood boards. As their dimensions are small I had to use brush sizes: 2, 1, 3/0 and 4/0. They present meoricho (머리초) patterns' details. Traditionally meorichos are always placed in the beam-ends.

The first work from the right is my very first dancheong. It shows common Buddhist pattern - lotus blossom. To be honest, I am not proud of it today but I do not want to hide it. It is just my history and it is the beginning of my evolution in dancheong painting.

The second painting from the right side was inspired by patterns in Gyeongbokgung Palace (경복궁, 景福宮).

The third one from the right presents another floral motif. What is special about this work? It is my first dancheong which reached Korea. Now it belongs to Mr Choi from the city of Hwaesong (화성). I must admit it's honour for me that my painting appeared in homeland of the dancheong style.

And the last one (the first from the left side) shows lotus pattern inspired by dancheongs from Anyangsa Temple (안양사, 安養寺).
