Matilda Jung is a freelance paper artist and illustrator from South Korea who creates amazing and incredibly detailed drawings from paper. Instead of drawing with a regular pen, Matilda is using the versatility of paper to create her artwork, which she likes to call “Paper Illustrations”.
“I would like to call my work ‘Paper Illustrations’ because I am not following the traditional way of making paper art. My work is different from paper sculptures. In fact, I’m not a big fan of 3Ds or giving too much depth to my work. I prefer a slightly flat looking result, like paintings,” the artist said in an interview with Ballpit Magazine.
Her art can be easily recognized for its incredibly vivid colors and many intricate details. Jung says her paper illustrations are mostly inspired by scenes from her memories, life, and surroundings.
“My art is mainly about
observations of the world around me, places I have lived, people, culture,
nature, animals, and mythology. I love using vivid colors and complicated
details.”
