Guseul Park was born and raised in Korea and studied ceramics in college; however, she was always drawn to painting and is a self-taught artist. “Art means meditation to me. By creating it, I explore the deepest side of myself and examine my state of mind. It always brings me to a state of pure joy—the place in which I can truly be myself.” Her favorite medium is the pencil, which she describes as “back to basics art.” When not in her studio, she finds inspiration in daily strolls, travel, reading, and embroidery.
