For artists, controlling a color can be compared to chefs trying to find perfect seasoning. Sometimes, a minor difference could be the one by which the value of art is defined. At a glance, Jeon, Myeong-ja is an artist agonizing about color. 

It seems that her affection for blue color has somewhat become a persistence. 

With unique delicacy of female, she clearly expresses a dreamscape on canvas. 

The value of traditional art has been defined by color, composition, technique and contents. But, thanks to development of arts, artists of current era have started to consider their emotion the most important element in arts. The emotion of artists and people can be connected via works of art which speak for artists’ emotion and thoughts. 

Nevertheless, a color has been maintaining its position as basic principle of arts. 

Figure, space, location, size and texture never exist without color.

Regardless of composition, solid or flat, everything cannot be free from color. 

Human being began with self-awareness of color and color’s effect on our mind. And, our arts of the day have found unique attraction for color and, especially, arrangement of colors. 

Light coming from color which has different wavelength stimulates human being’s visual organ, while the visual nerve delivers the information of color to the cerebrum. Based on memory and experience of the past, a sort of psychological action of color is made.Color itself has no temperature difference, such as cold and hot. But, its visual sense of color generates mental process in human being, making people remind of their memory. In that sense, now we can think that “All color has its unique taste. Same color, different methods of expression and different exhibition methods can cause mental change”. Jeon, Myeong-ja is an artist skilled in the use of color. 

As a female painter, her touch is soft, and color is mild. Also, her paintings contain freshness only shown in Korean arts, while fantasy and reality are harmonized.  With female artist’s endemic soft touch, Jeon Myeong-Ja limits her arts to identical basic tone. Her novel fantasy, explaining harmonized relation of human being and nature, provides people with experience of artist’s delicate and sensitive life. These kinds of arts are not easily found in these days. Her paintings do not contain too much content, but simply maintain warm and active energy, giving sense of calmness and peacefulness.

The arts derive from our life, while they also have impact on our life. There is a hope that art galleries can show this “warmth” to more people through works of art.
