Oscar-winning filmmaker Wes Anderson has a reputation and large following for his oddball films with trademark pastel styles. It's that unique style that also tends to make him a hit with artists.

Barcelona-based artist Mar Cerdà has created paper dioramas of some of Anderson's most popular films, including The Royal Tenenbaums, The Grand Budapest Hotel and The Darjeeling Limited.

Cerdà initially created works based on Anderson films for the Spoke Art gallery in San Francisco, which holds an annual tribute to the quirky director. As a fan of the director, Cerdà happily contributed.

"The sense of theatre and the use of frontal view are some of the most present characteristics in my illustrations," Cerdà told Mashable. "That’s why Wes Anderson’s films fit very well with my way of illustrating, with his symmetrical and frontal view compositions.
