Colored Pencil Flower - The CreativeMindClass Blog

Aug 6, 2022

 If I had to choose one term that represented my style of drawing that word would be "Spring'.

I want people to see my drawings and feel the way they're blossoming like a warm spring of flowering blooms.

Cottagecore is the lifestyle I have chosen and believe in. The reason might be that I live in Seoul the largest city in Korea, so I admire the natural beauty and rural lifestyle much more than what I catch in their sight daily.

Instead of expressing a sense of ferocity, I express a calm and peaceful mood as I do in nature.

 What's the most important thing in creating your illustration?

In the beginning, I'd like to talk about the things that I take inspiration in. I focus on happiness in small objects. Flowers I see in a garden, the whispers of flowers flying in the breeze or even a tiny blossom at the corner of a street I see when walking.

My work is mostly inspired by small wildflowers. Landscapes that are natural from botanical encyclopedias and rural landscapes can also be a source of inspiration. I save a lot of content through pictures and frequently take notes on colored pencil art ideas.

Then, let's look at the technique of work. I create drawings to the level of large-scale details as if they were real flowers , and convey my emotions through color.

I make use of pointed colored pencils to precisely depict the form of the flower. It is then set with a gentle and warm mood by employing pastels instead of bright colors.

I like also to juxtapose plain and textured paper together using the paper flower technique to create the impression of flowers blooming.

Rather than simply drawing instead, I believe that creating paper flowers creates a much greater sense of beauty. It's a more precise translation of what I have in my head.

My name is Yeo Jin. I'm an artist with a colored pencil. author and illustrator located in Seoul. My work is based on flowers as they always bring me happiness!

So far, I've published six coloring pencil instructional books. I have also collaborated with brands for illustrations. I currently give lectures to aspiring drawing artists and I am also making products that can be sold in stores online and in local shops.

You can find my colored pencil artwork in Instagram and on my website.

I'd like to present my YouTube channel. My vlogs are about traveling but also have various travel-related drawings and inspirations (mostly drawn with colored pencils) that I do through my travels.
