"Hello, I'm Seeun Park, an illustrator. It's nice to meet you! I create various works based on hand painting. I draw on papers of all sizes and sometimes use these illustrations to create motion graphics. I work with both domestic and international brands on commercial projects, and I find great joy and pleasure in adding visual delight to everyday life."

I'm always captivated by the beautiful form of flowers whenever I see them. I often wonder, 'How can such diverse beauty exist worldwide?' In this piece, I've captured a garden landscape filled with flowers. Unlike typical gardens where flowers of the same kind form colonies, the flowers in my work have different faces yet are connected to one another. How they blend together while each expresses its beauty reminded me of our lives. I wanted to express 'my own flower' that discovers and refines its unique beauty. To capture the distinct color of each flower, I used more than seven colors, freely expressing what I consider to be 'unique beauty.' I created this with the hope that Amore Stories readers will bloom fully like these flowers.

I paint colors based on momentary attraction and sensory intuition. The seasonal hues I experience through my senses accumulate in my mind, then suddenly emerge at a particular moment, allowing me to add brushstrokes freely. I believe these experiences provide the nourishment that develops my sense of color.

I draw what captures my interest in the moment. Nature—flowers, grass, trees—is always a favorite subject that I frequently portray, and recently I've shifted to ‘my utterly ordinary daily life.’ When I became conscious of previously overlooked moments, I discovered beautiful instances I had been missing. My illustrations exist somewhere between reality and fiction—‘everyday pictures.’ They could be the daily life I dream of but don't yet have, or a newly perceived scene from what I encounter every day. Perhaps that's why they feel somewhat like fairy tales while remaining comfortable and familiar.

It's a piece called "Bookshelf - The Bookcase in Our Living Room," which depicts a bookcase that fills a large part of our wall at home. I focused on the family's touch felt through the books. Someone picks up a book that another has read, or secretly reads a short note written on the back of a cover, sharing warm emotions that aren't visible. The loose sense of solidarity felt among family members through the bookcase feels warm and precious.

Someone once described my drawings as having ‘dancing lines’ and ‘cheerful colors.’ After hearing that, I became curious about what would happen if I made the lines dance. I want to be a visual artist who expresses without being bound by medium. As an artist, I wanted to dynamically express the unique beauty I've discovered—free-flowing forms and lines, and vibrant colors.

Ultimately, I think what's unique is most beautiful. When I think of ‘beauty,’ I think of distinctive characteristics rather than a specific subject—a bright smile or a gentle voice. I believe there are as many types of beauty as there are people. Most important is an individual's interest in discovering and developing that beauty. Beauty will emerge the moment you decide to be truly yourself.

The work "Finding My Own Sparks" represents a journey to discover ‘sparkling pieces’ that are uniquely mine, already existing but not yet realized. The more you cherish these pieces, the more beautifully they grow, creating a one-of-a-kind beauty. I believe all beauty in the world begins with ‘uniqueness.’ Discovering your pieces and nurturing them yourself is, I think, the most wonderful way to preserve beauty in the world. I hope you'll find your sparkling pieces among the lush garden foliage.
