Jean Chung (진청)
Hello!
My name is Jean Chung, meaning 'deep blue' in Korean. I am a visual artist and a painter currently based in Seoul, South Korea.
I majored in Korean literature and Fine Arts at Korea University. I used to work in a publishing house for some time before turning into a full-time artist. Having a background in literature, my passion lies in storytelling via painting.
Working with mostly traditional art mediums, I experiment between paintings, illustrations, and books.
Say hello to me at artbyjeanc@gmail.com for fun collaborations or any inquiries!
