Meet the Artist

Connie was born and raised in South Korea. Naturally fascinated by art, she constantly drew throughout her entire youth. As a child she loved to read novels with illustrations. As such, she was also drawn to realistic illustration art style which effectively conveyed the depth of the emotions in the narrative. She spent her teenage years and twenties derouting from artistic path but at the age of 30, she traveled to Canada to study fine arts in the diploma program of Visual and Creative Arts at Sheridan College. During her study, she learned about the world of portrait arts. Immediately captivated by the beauty of individual personalities, and the various techniques and methods of depicting them in the flowy richness of oil colors, she has worked on cultivating techniques and artistic intuition through the eye of a portrait artist since then. Already having years of experience in completing commission work, Connie is continuing her journey of capturing interesting personalities in her medium of choice, always committed to making her best effort.
