Who am I? Where am I?

Here, life on the Island is my reality,

Here, by letting go and emptying myself one by one,

I begin to see my lost dreams.

I was a young girl and was painting then,

As winds touch the sea and create waves,

My old dreams awaken me, and I stand on a happy path.

Oh, here I see my dreams in my paintings!

Now when I paint, I paint the dreams,

Now when I paint, I become young again.

It is a new beginning!

나는 누구인가? 나는 어디에 있는가?

바다에 떠 있는

섬은 비현실적이다

하나씩 버리고 비우니

보이지않는 꿈이 보인다

나는 소녀였고

그때 나는 그림을 그렸다

바람이 바다를 건드려 파도를 만든다

함께, 오래전 나의꿈도 다시 살아나

행복한 길위에 나는 서 있다

나에 그림에 그때 그  그꿈이있다

그림을 그리면 꿈을 볼 수 있다

그림을 그리면 난 다시 소녀가 된다.

Hello! Thank you so much for visiting my website! I have been pursuing art my entire life, trying new mediums whenever I possible. My favorite is watercolor and acrylic. I currently live on Whidbey Island, WA with my husband, surrounded by beautiful nature and clean, crisp air. If you are interested and/or would like to inquire about pricing, please feel free to contact me.
