Sewn From The Stars is a Korean Fairytale based on some of my favorite stories from my childhood. Growing up, I loved all kind of fairytales but I was never able to find one that I could truly identify with. As a Korean adoptee, all of my family and friends looked different from me. From a young age my understanding of beauty was blonde and blue eyes.
I decided I wanted to write and illustrate a tale that resonated with other children like me. My travels and my love of magic and all things floral drove me to create this book painted in digital watercolor.
"She knew the way up the mountain path, and it was only at the top of the mountain where the most colorful flowers grew..." - Sewn From The Stars

I designed a series of illustrated phone wallpapers using digital watercolor. I was inspired by the beauty of the Korean traditional dress called hanbok. I use the same method of digital illustration in Corel Painter, and them clipping the textures into flat shapes in Adobe Illustrator.

Wall Prints

Role
Typography, Digital Illustration, Graphic Design
These wall prints were created combining typography and digital illustration. The first design is based on stuffed dolls I had in my nursery when I was little.
The second print means "Way Back Home". My sister and I were adopted from South Korea, and this phrase combined with the Korean national flower "Mugunghwa" is particularly meaningful to us. It refers to our journey back home to Korea, but it also reminds us that our true home is with our adoptive family in America.
