My name is Eunjung June Kim (usually people call me June) and I an animator and illustrator who lives in San Francisco. I graduated from the Academy of Art University in Animation. After graduating, I did gallery exhibition, attended many local art fairs and published my art books.
What inspired you to go into the craft business, do you still have a day job? Every artiest I met at the fair inspired me to do this. They all love what they are doing and i think that was a huge motivation for me. And Yes… I still have a day job. I am an animator at a game company in the bay area. I think my day job and my personal work inspire each other to create more artwork that I need it.
Describe your creative process when designing/making your product line. Most of my products are prints. The inspiration for all the drawing I do for the prints comes from a variety of places. Every day life could be an inspiration and some silly movie clip could lead you to do something crazy. So everyday I always try to capture that moment when I got an idea. After I finish, I made those to prints, postcards, etc.
What’s the best thing about what you do? And the worst? The best part of having a table at the art fair is I get to meet and talk to a lot of people. Also it’s an amazing feeling when you get a chance to see the people who love your artwork. I don’t think I have the worst experience yet?
