About the Item
Watercolor on paper
BIOGRAPHY:
Eunju Kang was born in 1962 and raised in Daegu, Korea. She moved to California at 14 years old with her mother and two sisters in the 1970s. Kang was always an avid doodler, often in her textbooks, which became a helpful communication tool as she adjusted to her new life. Since the early 1990s, Kang has lived and worked in NYC, painting, printmaking and turning her
doodles into a successful business with her sisters.
Kang earned fine art degrees at UC Santa Barbara and Pasadena Art Center College of Design
where she graduated with distinction. She has been awarded residencies at The Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown (FAWC), the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and the Vermont Studio Center. She has taught at the L.A. County High School for the Arts, the ArtCenter College of Design and the School of Visual Art in NYC. Her fine art is in private collections
around the world. Her illustration work has been used in packaging and ad campaigns by Godiva Chocolate, Aveda, Simon & Schuster and many others.
Kang’s lifelong passion for monoprinting began in Santa Barbara. She has continued to explore the medium, often incorporating collage and detailed sketches or painting.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
My love for watercolor painting and monoprinting never ends. Each day is a
surprise—something spontaneous, both intended and not intended. On my daily bike ride, I find beauty in nature and in everyday life, sometimes in the most mundane places. As I get older, I stop and take in what I see: colors, shapes, flowers, sky. All of these images come with me to the studio. I add, subtract, blur, clear and then the surprise of it all comes—a simple gesture both deliberate and not deliberate. This unexpected outcome drives me every day.

- Flowering Plant Paintings: A Pair of Framed Original Botanical WatercolorsLocated in Alamo, CAThis is a pair of framed original one-of-a-kind watercolor paintings of flowering plants entitled "Monandria Monogymia, Costus Speciosus" and "Tetrandria Monogynia, Ixorci Stricta" by an anonymous artist. This striking and detailed pair of framed watercolor botanical paintings are presented in identical gold-colored wood frames with cream-colored mats and gold-colored fillets. They are glazed with UV conservation glass. Each of the frames measures 21.5" high, 19.25" wide and 1" deep. The watercolors are painted on very thin Japanese or India paper, which have some wrinkling due in part to the nature of the production and the mounting on a backing of this kind of very thin paper. The paintings are otherwise in very good condition. Monandria is a class of flowers with one stamen. Cheilocostus speciosus, also know as crêpe ginger, is in the family Costaceae. It is native to southeast Asia and surrounding regions, from India to China to Queensland and Indonesia. It has also been cultivated in Puerto Rico, Mauritius, Réunion, Fiji, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Belize, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the West Indies, mainly for its ornamental beauty and for its medicinal uses. It has been used to treat fever, rash, asthma, bronchitis, kidney and other urinary problems, as and intestinal worms. It is mentioned in the Kama Sutra as an ingredient in a cosmetic to be used on the eyelashes to increase sexual attractiveness. Tetrandria is a class of flowers with four stamens. Ixorci Stricta, also known as Ixora chinensis, is native to Southeast China, Indo-China and the Philippines. Although native to the tropical and subtropical areas throughout the world, it is most common in tropical Asia...Category
