 On the way coming home YH Lee drew her portrait in subway and presented it to her. 

She was so glad that she said that she'd keep it preciously. 

We had enjoyed meeting and sketching together too.

Hope her staying in Korea to be memorable and exciting,

Nice to meet you, Florence,

Keep in touch to see you again,

Thank you! :)

new comer Florence from Belgium who joined us for sketching during her visiting Korea

We met her on the way going to clime the art park at the bridge where she was sketching. She came late a little to miss our group and kept sketching alone! 

We appreciated her works which were drawn at Sokcho city, Baekdam temple and so on.

By the kind and considerate guidance of Architect Choi Seung-won we could enjoy all the sculptures installed in forest.
