Education
2001 BFA, Magna Cum Laude, University of Pennsylvania
1997 - 2000 Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts
1988 - 1991 Lorenzo de' Medici, Florence, Italy
Myjung Kim started her painting career at the age of four by splattering ink on her parents' prized Persian rug. Horrified and displeased at her burst of destructive creativity, they immediately took away her brush and replaced it with a calculator. A math tutor was soon hired to fill her afternoons with fun. A piano was also purchased to encourage a cleaner creative outlet.
Today, Myjung prefers to paint on canvas. Her subjects include people, plants, animals and the occasional piece of fruit. Myjung welcomes commissions because contact with other humans forces her to practice her social skills.
