Simon Holloway
This one strikes me as very violent… Perhaps it’s the expresionless appearance, coupled with the way the colours run down from her neck? I don’t really like the way you’ve done her hair in this one, but her face is beautifully drawn. I feel as though you particularly enjoyed drawing her face, and it really shows. The eyes are perfect.
mimi yoon replied
hi simon…. i truly appreciate your critique…. i did not intend to make this a violent piece and i really don’t see it that way, but for each viewer i suppose it plays different music… and that is the true beauty of art….
but i do somewhat agree with your thought on the hair…. i felt that it looked not too violent but too clumsy… the canvas being quite long and mimi being pretty short, i had it placed on the floor, and bending over to pain the hair was a mistake… i did not have freedom of motion as i should have… could not dance to the fullest… but then again, had i raised the canvas and danced more wild, it might’ve appeared even more violent to you… : )
and the face… i love painting faces… i love painting eyes even more…. most importantly, i love pouring emotion into eyes… i’m glad you saw that…. thank you so kindly, simon… : )

syd baker
Excellent format for this lady, sort of contemporary art nouveau, and she seems less tragic than some of the sorrowful maidens too, plus I know about free, having been set free very recently…
mimi yoon replied
hope having been set free is a positive thing, syd… and hope you fly…
thank you so kindly…. : ) x

Andy Beck
I like the way you’ve let the paint dribble down the canvas, its something I try to leave in when it happens, but I find its hard to stop myself from ‘neatening things up’ :) You always seem to be able to keep your style nice and free… :)
mimi yoon replied
yet your pieces are not tight as all… love your finish on red wrap and marisa with a glass.... i often overwork if i don’t finish a piece within an hour and a half… someone suggested a timer once… : )
thank you so much for your words, andy… : )

Love the dark mysterious mood this has. Just gorgeous Mimi xxx
kenmeyerjr
This is really nice…I can see what you mean now about our work having similar elements! I think yours transmits better to a gallery setting, tho.
mimi yoon replied
thank you so much, ken…. do you do many shows? i’ve done only a few groups shows… and yes some of our works do have similarities…. : )
kenmeyerjr
No, I find that my work is too…genre based? I need and should do more abstract work…some of your stuff along those lines is really beautiful….if it wasn’t so late, I would talk more or blackmail you into chatting on facebook….another time hopefully. Boy, I wish I still lived in California!
mimi yoon replied
thank you so much for all of your wonderful comments…. very happy to meet another great artist, ken…. another time and good night~ : )
kenmeyerjr
Same here! Multiplied!
marcwellman2000
and yet again, it takes 5 weeks to get to bottom of comments….(as usual). Just wonderful as is all of your great imagery I always look forward to seeing your emotions as an image

John Luarca
Hi Mimi! I just have to say that your works are truly breathtaking; the passion that you give to your pieces really shows with those strokes, and how i love how you do them. The seemingly carefree and wild strokes on the hair is just an amazing contrast to the careful and expressive execution of the face. To me traditional art is THE highest form of visual art and I am always in awe of those people who have this gift, such gift that you have. :) Keep on.
