Kim tells us the following about her Paperman print inspirations:

"Initially I had some difficulty coming up with one composition that was able to show the full spirit of this dynamic and beautiful short. And then I thought 'why don't I expand the screen into one long illustration?!'. So I brought the two main characters just about to meet into the composition hoping to catch the anticipation and excitement of love, about to happen."

The Jisoo Kim Paperman print will be released on Friday, September 23rd, 2016 at 12:00 pm Pacific time at www.cyclopsprintworks.com.

I love that Cyclops Print Works isn't only focusing on the big feature films but is giving the Walt Disney Animation shorts program a lot of love. Now if only they could do the same for the Pixar shorts as I'd love to feature some of my favorites on my walls.
