Jungyeon [juhng-yeon]
I am a graduate student at the SVA in NYC, and ready to be a freelance illustrator after my graduation in May 2011.
I grew up in a traditional Korean family, but New York City inspired me to go after my big dreams.
I primarily work in silkscreen and make prints and books derived from my experiences with eastern and western culture.
