Please scroll down for Korean posting :)

Today my friend and I went to see Eva Armisen’s paintings exhibited at Seoul Arts Center, art complex consist of a Music Hall, an Opera House, Art Galleries, National Gugak(Traditional Korean Music) Center, Academy of Arts and other buildings for various artistic purposes.

Seoul Arts Center

We were thankful for it was a little warmer than the last couple of days. :)

My friend was sitting at the outdoor concert hall waiting for me while I took photos :)

Concert Hall

We went to one of two art galleries and there were also Picasso and John Lennon exhibitions.

When we finally got to the third floor for Eva Armisen exhibition there were so many people including families with children who must have been enjoying their winter school break.

Eva Armisen is a Spanish artist who’s quite loved by many Koreans. Several years ago I even had a T shirt with her illustration work on it :)

Most of her works are about flowers, family, friends, pets and nature. What she tries to show us is the importance of daily life. According to the brochure she uses quite warm colors and gentle lines. And the paintings are full of happy and positive vibes that even make you happy.

The entire area was illustrated with her paintings which I heard Eva herself came to Korea and did paint on the outer wall of the exhibition room.

They displayed even some dishes with her works on them.

Taking photos were not allowed in the room but I took some from on the wall outside.
Well, how do you like them? Aren't they so cute and pretty?

I think she has a special talent to display her message in a very simple and straightforward way. Art does not always have to be difficult and serious.. well that's what I think but what do I know about art :P

There were some photo zones crowded with many people who were waiting for their turn to sit with the figures. (I am not sure what you call this kind of thing in English.)

I hope you enjoyed her artworks, because we did very much :)

안녕하세요~
영작 연습을 위해 가~끔 영어 포스팅을 트립스팀 글로벌 사이트에 올리고 있습니다.
지금 이 글을 읽고 계신다면 그건 글로벌 트립스팀을 통해서가 아니라 제 블로그로 직접 찾아주셨다는 뜻이겠죠? 한적한 공간을 찾아 주셔서 진심으로 고맙습니다~~ ^^
영어는 엄청 브로큰 잉글리쉬라 ;; 자세히 보시면 민망해서요 ㅋ 영문 아래쪽에 저를 찾아 주신 이웃분들을 위해 한글로 코멘트를 몇줄 작성하겠습니다~~

오늘 예술의전당 한가람미술관에서 전시중인 에바알머슨의 그림을 보고 왔습니다.

팜플랫에 의하면 그녀의 그림은 따뜻한 컬러와 부드러운 선으로 가득차 있고 평범한 일상의 소중함을 일깨워 준다고 하네요. 저는 그냥 귀엽고 예쁘고 따뜻한 느낌이 들어서 좋더라구요. 몇 년 전 이분의 작품이 프린트된 티셔츠를 입고 다니기도 했었구요~

토요일이고 아이들 방학이라서 그런지 관람객이 정말 많아서 화가분의 인기를 실감하겠더라구요. 이분은 제 생각엔 유난히 한국에서 많은 사랑을 받고 계신듯 했거든요 그래서 그런지 남산 타워, 북촌 풍경, 한식 상차림을 주제로 한 그림으로 한국에 대한 자신의 애정을 표현 하셨더라구요.
