Sunkyung had never touched a pastel stick until last year.
I gave her some rudimentary lessons on supplies and techniques of pastel painting - she took off running. Yes, she had a few lessons from some other artists in Oklahoma since. But her understanding of color and the workings of pastels amazes me.
This little jewel is not a work of an amateur. Don't you agree?
But it is true that she never did any pastel painting until last year.
She was determined.
She was passionate.
She absorbed any and all information like a sponge.
She was non-stoppable.
Investing in the best materials helped also.
In everyday life, she is an environmental scientist, with a PH.D.
Who says science and art don't mix?
That is very pretty.
