Fifth Place: Lia

First up, in fifth place was none other than Lia. She was tasked with turning ripped paper and glue into an eye-catching artwork. Her subject was simple but memorable: the apple from Snow White.

If I were to be in a fairytale, I’d like to be the mysterious poison apple in Snow White and be the main object.

— Lia

LiaDespite the clean result, she only had a few pink papers or votes, leading her to pout in the end.

Third Place: Ryujin and Yeji

Tied in third place were Ryujin and Yeji. The former made a drawing of a cat with oil pastels. She based it off the iconic character from Alice in Wonderland.

Whenever I saw Cheshire, I was always so jealous. I felt like it always had the answer when asked for directions in Alice in Wonderland.

Its distinct character left a big impression on Ryujin.

[It said] ‘Any road will take you there.’ It was that kind of character, right? I drew this because I want to be a Cheshire cat.

Yeji, meanwhile, made a cute drawing of a princess using markers.

The title is ‘AM I PRINCESS?’ When do you usually think, ‘If I were a princess…?’ You don’t do it after you grow up. Right now I’m thinking like a child going back to my innocent days.

Second Place: Chaeryeong

Next up, second place belonged to Chaeryeong! She was the only one who made a watercolor painting about where she’d live if she were a princess.

If I became the main character in a fairytale, I thought this kind of environment would suit me well so I drew a house.

— Chaeryeong

ChaeryeongSome of the notes left on her artwork read, “[The piece is] realistic realism,” “Hope your house prices rise,” and “Ryeongchae is the most fairytale-like!” 

First Place: Yuna

Finally, Yuna was named the best artist in ITZY by their staff! She was challenged to use traditional art materials of ink and a brush. Though it wasn’t easy, she successfully made a landscape of a mountain and road.
