	In Leaf by Niggle by J. R. R. Tolkien, Niggle spends his whole life trying to paint a great forest. He never quite finishes it—only one leaf becomes fully realized. After his death, he enters heaven and discovers the forest at last, alive and complete. He walks among the trees, birds building nests in their branches, and sees everything just as he imagined it—and so much more. He exclaims, “It’s a gift!”

My art feels like that.

I try to catch a tiny glimpse of what is to be. I know there is so much more beyond what I can draw, and yet I offer these small fragments—little leaves—hinting at the beauty of heaven. As I draw, I find myself longing to step into the forest too. For now, these are the leaves I’ve made.
 Ruthy Kim is an LA-based Korean American illustrator and designer who shares stories through illustrations that capture moments of joy, wonder, and quiet hope. Her work offers a glimpse of heaven. 
When she’s not drawing, she’s usually thinking about what to draw next.

client: Oh Reader
art director: Gemma Peckham

Oh Reader Magazine is an independent literary magazine that explores books, reading, and the visual culture of literature. 
I illustrated the cover of Issue 22 for the publication. The client and I wanted to capture the cozy and comfortable vibe of reading at home while it’s snowing outside.&#38;nbsp;

	Grand Central Market Elevator Vinyl &#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;

client: Grand Central Market&#38;nbsp;ad: Tim Aaron
Grand central market, one of LA’s most popular tourist spots, commissioned me to design their elevator vinyl. We decided to go with a map of LA with sports stadiums surrounding GCM. I used a rough ink sketch style to capture the LA vibe.&#38;nbsp;

	Persona: Exploring Self-Portraiture


client: Forest Lawn Museummuseum director:&#38;nbsp;James Fishburneexhibition date: April 26 through Aug 10, 2025 

title: Spring Bride Series&#38;nbsp;
When James first contacted me about the exhibition, I was skeptical. I would love to work on other people’s portraits, but self-portraits? I was busy planning for my wedding, and I was wondering if I should participate at all. Then I decided to draw myself as a bride- an imperfect bride.
Ruthy Kim is a Los Angeles-based illustrator and designer passionate about sharing stories through illustrations that commemorate the joyous moments in life. The Spring Bride Series is a personal exploration of transformation and celebration. As Kim prepares for her own wedding in the spring, these self-portraits capture the anticipation and joy of a life-changing moment. This series features vibrant digital compositions, incorporating spring flowers to symbolize growth and renewal. It also embraces the beauty of imperfection, reflecting on how individuals enter marriage as their imperfect selves, and through the shared struggles and joys, marriage helps people grow and evolve together. &#38;nbsp;
