Warnemünde – multiple points of view / 다각도로 본 바르네뮌데

The area had a lively but relaxing atmosphere. I kept doodling on the same page as I visited different places, while trying to fit them together into one scene. Then I colored in digitally, trying to keep the feel of the pen strokes.

생기 있으면서도 편안한 느낌을 주는 곳이었다. 장소를 옮겨가면서도 같은 페이지에 낙서를 추가해 나가면서 한 장면으로 만들어 보았다. 나중에 디지털 채색을 하면서 낙서의 볼펜 자국 느낌을 살리려고 해보았다.

Published on The Mays Anthology/ ‘5월 선집’에 출판

My illustration is included in this year’s Mays Anthology, an annual anthology of artworks/writings of Cambridge & Oxford people published by The Varsity!

If you are interested in having a wacky (or normal, if you prefer) illustration to accompany your articles, I’m all ears… 🙂


예전에 그린 일러스트레이션이 매년 캠브리지/옥스포드 사람들의 글과 그림을 골라 출판하는 “5월 선집”에 포함되어 출판되었다. 편집장 서문에 따르면 “두 대학에 대한… 신화를 깨어 보는” 모음이라는데 내 그림도 한몫 보탠 셈이다. 글에 엉뚱한 그림을 곁들이고 싶으시다면 연락 부탁드린다.

Night Ride

Sketched on site at Espresso Library which has bikes hanging from the ceiling.

Modified, inked, and colored afterwards.

Best of 2019

Last year, I drew with dip pens and sketched more on site. I also tried weaving in stories, be it on science or others.

Next year, I’d like to try one-cut cartoons, starting from re-drawing classics, and hopefully at some point weaving in more from my day job, neuroscience and cognitive science. I know this part of my resolution is the same as last year’s. I found it difficult to start from vacuum, and that’s why I want to start from reinterpreting existing works.

What’s your new year’s resolution?
