BIBLE


Bible is a wonderful Korean exchange student who is also at VCU for the art program. When I first met her, approximately 3 months ago, she could barely speak any English. But by now, she's practically fluent. She is in art history class with me and does a really good job of waking me up when I fall asleep. Plus she is the cutest thing to ever walk the Earth!!!!
I know "Bible" is kinda a funky name. In Korean it's Sung kyung, which directly translates to the Bible. Korea has a heavy Christian culture and her parents are also devoutly religious to Christ Jesus. So when it came time to name their first child and only daughter I guess it had to be good. For a while they were considering calling her "Mary" (or maybe the Korean version) but they soon realized that's way too plain and boring for someone so damn cute!
This is a picture of her and I guess a little taste of her art. She is really talented!

This page is confusing as hell. I do like the painting of the two guys sitting. The perspective is crazy.
