About the Item

Acrylic on wood Lee Yu Min is a Korean artist born in 1987 who lives and works in Daejeon, South Korea. She is specialized in Korean painting, completing her doctoral studies in the field. Her work is grounded in Eastern philosophy, utilizing negative space and emptiness to convey her artistic vision. She captures the gentle transitions of the seasons with warmth. The expansive skies in her art, though seemingly vacant, are filled with imaginative possibilities. The small depiction of people and objects in her work symbolizes our minor presence in the vast universe. Her paintings are rendered in warm pastel colors, reflecting the artist's perception of the world as a comforting place. In her universe, the sky represents a space for thought, stars symbolize hope, and the moon grants wishes. The dogs and cats featured in her art are based on real-life animals. The girl appearing in her works represents the viewer. Lee aims to express her art in a literary and poetic manner, hoping that everyone who views her paintings finds comfort and solace.

  • "Jacob's Dream Gen 28:12" Relief Sculptural Painting
    By Carl Dixon
    Located in Houston, TX
    Sculptural relief image of the biblical story from Genisis 28:12 about Jacob's Dream of a ladder reaching up to the heaves from the earth. The work is done on wood and it painted and lacquered over. It is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner. Artist biography: The Mississippi-born Dixon is a self-taught artist. A teacher spotted Dixon’s talent, when he was the first black student to take an art course in his newly integrated high school. Carl decided to get vocational training as a brick mason, but he returned to art-making, when his childhood friend, Ben Oliver, persuaded him to try his hand at wood carving on a router machine. The two aspiring artisans began making decorative address signs but soon moved on to bas-relief portraits of Michael Jackson, Prinz, and other black pop cultural icons for neighborhood kids.
