Lee Young Ji was born in South Korea. She graduated from Sungshin Womans University Korea with a B.F.A and received an M.A. in Oriental Painting from Sungshin Graduate School. She is a young, promising artist who has been gaining traction with collectors through her labor-intensive drawing of trees. Her paintings of trees are full of artisan spirit and drawn with one brushstroke after another.
