Tae Yang Shirt


("Catch Your Dreams" shirt design...)


(Tae Yang shirt design...)




With Big Bang's new album out "Blue," I thought it was appropriate to post a picture of one of my favorite Korean Singers, Tae Yang. I drew this with these special crayons my mom found in our basement. You're suppose to draw the design on paper and then iron it on but I didn't read directions and just drew it straight onto the shirt. I've designed a couple of other shirts such as this dream catcher shirt that I've sold a couple of. It's so t ime time consuming to hand draw all these though. I think I'll look for a simpler and quicker way of making them.

KMK Kicks


(KMK Kicks...)


I know this is my first blog post in months. In the time that has passed, I have been painting shoes for friends and calling them, "KMK Kicks." My Korean name is Kwon Kyung-Mee so I switched it around and made it more americanized: Kyung-Mee Kwon and then shortened it to KMK. Anyways. Above are some recent shoes I did for my friends boyfriends birthday. It was my first pair of converse and I recently painted on Vans. Eventually I hope to sell these shoes on Etsy.com but this won't happen till summer when I have more time. School and work take up all my life at the moment. It's nice to catch up on my blog when I have a moment of free time during my spring break. I'll be posting more soon. Thanks for all the support and love!
