About The Artwork

This original painting is on a canvas with acrylic paint and oil pastel mixed media. What does love mean? People love people who are similar to themselves. However, sometimes feelings for oneself and others are also of interest. Filling in one's own shortcomings is also the essence of love. Thinking about the meaning of love, this painting was made into work in association with colors. The combination of complementary colors feels a bit provocative, but when it is harmonized, it becomes the best beauty. I hope the viewers also feel the message of love achieved by the combination of colors and lines. ****Critique by John Crowther**** kyungsoo lee’s Flame of Love is a furiously harmonious, expertly wrought, and tonally rich painting that beautifully showcases the soft power of pastel paint. Blazing tendrils of pigment lap up the canvas in a kaleidoscopic display of purples, blacks, yellows, greens, and whites. The lavish display of colors and their fiery appearance conjure up a powerful sense of passion that would overwhelm had lee stuck only to bright acrylic. Without the intervention of the softer pastel hues, the density and tonal complexity would prevent the viewer from fully engaging with the work. However, lee does not fall into this trap, and Flame of Love is a perfectly balanced ode to passion.

Kyungsoo Lee was born, raised, and educated in Seoul, Korea. She began painting as a small child, displaying a precocious talent for art and, for painting in particular. She continues today, many years later as she has always done: painting. After receiving her MFA from the Graduate School of Sungshin Women's University in 1983 and then moving with her family to California in 1984. She is among the first generation of artists to be fully trained in a combination of oriental and western European aesthetics. She approaches her canvas with apparently little or no preconceived notion of what will occur. She has the disciplined ability to quiet the verbal, analytical part of her min and allow that silent creative half of the brain to dominate. Her painting is a process of discovery, evolving from the repetition of gestures and the layering of color over color. Her perceptive color sense lends strength to the delicate line and soft tones of her imaginary natural abstractions and inner landscapes. Kyungsoo Lee was named "Artist of the Month" and given her first major solo show at The Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul, Korea in 1989. Her paintings are found in collections are around the world; collections of museums, corporations, and individuals. Her life has been a journey, and the only constant in her life is painting. She has achieved a facility to speak eloquently with the line and color, to speak poetry without words to those who are receptive. Painting is her true blue friend.
