'Secret Code' Jesse Reno, Gabriel Shaffer and Thinkmule Group Show
Featuring new works by self taught artists and friends, Gabriel Shaffer, Jesse Reno and ThinkMule (Jeremy Pruitt.) All three artists create work with rich surface qualities and other worldly narratives involving mythological characters and stylized figures. The mysterious stories behind their works spark a dialogue with the viewer, allowing us to make up our own mind as to what the works are about. All the artists have an interest in and their works reflect qualities of visionary as well as primitive art. They share with us their viewpoints of the world around us, and the work transcends our reality to reveal new truths. It seems that life itself and the struggle for expression are the driving forces behind their work and their honesty reverberates through their images. Visually stimulating and mentally arousing, this show is definitely worth checking out

jung eun park is featured today on dailyserving.com
the drawing on there is really nice.
i looked at some more work and loved these:
i was initially attracted to this work cause i have been using coffee and tea for staining alot, and also hand sewing the paper. the last two drawings i did i used red thread too, partially cause it reminds me of cowboys, and also because i like the contrast between the overall, immediate, desaturated palette and subtle, but strong, red details.
"When I work, I place the large paper on the floor, sit on the paper, or sometimes lie down, and draw something not only in large scale, but also with very tiny details. Therefore, I can feel the touch and the smell of paper with all of my body and senses. It makes me enjoy the moment not only physically, but also psychologically. In the meantime, the paper can be another world where I can imagine and communicate with myself." (www.juneunpark.com)
when i work its usually sitting or standing on the large paper, and when sewing i am under the paper, flipping it around on top of me like a quilt. and i really like this physical relationship to the drawing, being the small maker. psychologically i am connected with the work because its my family, and through these drawings i am making my connection to their pasts.
coincidentally, i found another jung eun park. who is an illustrator/designer. also born in korea.
red thread!

finally, i found a third jung eun park who makes these whimsy drawing/sculptures which, surprise surprise, involve paper and sewing.

i can't copy and pictures from the site, so CHECK IT OUT. really.
half of the day i've been on the internet, tempted to call it wasting time, mostly avoiding unpacking and organizing my life at my parents house, but i think its been a pretty fruitful internet adventure. stealing music and inspiration. finding out that "jung eun park" in korean means "super art star"

he be reppin the streets of puerto rico.
he nars his tail and runs to the kitchen whenever he hears the ice machine.
he pees on strangers and tickles roots.
he ate my shoe and a box of incense.
pancho's a puppy now
but he'll be a dog soon.

he has no balls!
