If you've been keeping up to date with Korean artist Joanne Nam, you'll notice she's been putting in some serious hours doing new studies, painting, and exploring the breadth and scope of her figurative painting work. 

Take a look at some of her most recent work, as always breathtaking and painstakingly rendered. Nam's work usually consists of softly colored girls posed awkwardly in a blend of realism and surrealism. A city girl and self-described horror movie-aficionado with a childhood spent near Korea's lush forests, Joanne Nam is also an artist that paints from experience.
