As some of you may know, I'm Lisa Ketty Jørgensen, a digital artist who has worked in the VFX industry since 2011, contributing to films like Star Wars and Star Trek. But recently, my artistic journey has taken an exciting new turn – into the world of cardboard art. Here's the story of how I discovered the joy of creating with hands and why it has become such a meaningful part of my artistic practice. You can read more about my complete journey in my artist biography.
Why Cardboard Art?
What Draws Me to This Medium:
- Tactile Satisfaction: Unlike digital art, cardboard art allows me to physically shape and mold my creations
- Sustainable Creativity: Working with cardboard gives new life to an everyday material
- Sharp Lines & Precision: The combination of linoleum paint and careful cutting creates crisp, defined edges with a cutting knife.
- Artistic Freedom: Each piece is a pure expression of creativity, unrestricted by digital constraints
My Creative Process
1. Material Selection
I carefully choose cardboard pieces, considering texture and strength. Each piece has its own character and potential. Learn more about my materials in this guide.
2. Paint Application
Using linoleum paint, I apply colors that often reflect my love for 1970s color schemes – deep, warm, and inviting. See my earth-toned collections.
3. Shape Creation
Through precise cutting, I create shapes that combine geometric precision with organic fluidity. Explore my minimalistic art collection.
4. Final Details
Each piece is finished with attention to edges and surfaces, ensuring a professional, gallery-ready result. View my original artworks.

Looking Forward
This journey into cardboard art has opened up exciting new possibilities for my creative expression.
