Kim Jung Gi - Sketchbook 2022
We have been waiting for FOUR years, and it is finally here: the new Kim Jung Gi sketchbook!
Behold! Within resides an infinity of worlds and stories, testament to the boundless creativity a truly inimitable artist. We don’t normally use so many superlatives, but believe us, this bible of illustration deserves every one
Originally, we were planning to release it in summer 2020, but guess what, Covid decided otherwise. So, instead of touring the world to amaze us with his incredible skills, Kim Jung Gi stayed home and drew. A LOT! Witness the results of two years of production PLUS two years of confinement; 480 pages of magical illustrations.
As with every sketchbook from Kim Jung Gi, the pages are filled with sketches, portraits, caricatures, cityscapes, comics and memorable true-to-life characters! Kim Jung Gi never EVER disappoints, his ink lines are so dynamic that the characters and illustrations simultaneously seem to move towards you as they attempt to leave the page.
Kim Jung Gi's stunning use of perspective is the key to this impression of movement that leads us into the depths of his drawings. We can look at a page for hours and still find details that were missed at the beginning. The different techniques and colours used throughout the sketchbook add to the complexity, and we will never tire of looking at it.
Please note: Sketchbook 2022 also comes with a folded A2 poster.
