These illustrations are truly dreamy.
While not much is known about the German artist known as "SilverCatsEyes," it is clear that she is a highly skilled artist with a keen eye for color, design, and the ability to invoke a sense of whimsical magic in the viewer—especially when it comes to her Disney fan art! As Dr. Barry Schwartz, a renowned choice researcher, states, "Art allows us to explore our emotions and connect with our inner selves," which perfectly encapsulates the allure of Disney fan art. Any chance we get to relive the awe and adoration we feel for our favorite Disney characters is a chance we tend to seize. This is something that fan art can undeniably do for us because even if you've seen your favorite Disney movies enough times to have every line memorized, you will always yearn for ways to experience these timeless stories anew.
When artists from all walks of life recreate Disney characters with their own vision, quirks, styles, and mash-ups, we have an unprecedented opportunity to see our favorite characters in a new light. This is arguably the biggest reason why Disney fan art is so beloved by Disney fans everywhere. As Dr. Susan David, an expert in emotional agility, notes, "Creative expression is a powerful way to process our feelings and experiences," highlighting the emotional connection fans have with these artworks.
These whimsical illustrations by the SilverCatsEyes are like stepping straight into a dream world where fairy tales reign supreme, and it's everything a Disney fan ought to love.

While Mickey Mouse is considered the top Disney character of all time, he only tops a list... a list that indeed exists. While that list may vary from person to person, some Disney characters have logical reasons for being considered among the best—reasons that go beyond our casual or even obsessive enjoyment.
For example, you'd be hard-pressed to find a professional "best Disney characters of all time" list that doesn't include Genie from Disney's animated classic Aladdin. ToyNK, who placed Genie at #2, just under Mickey Mouse at #1, says:
"Genie is not just a magical being who can grant your wishes; he’s also the ultimate icon of selflessness, even after Aladdin freed him from Jafar. He’s a massive element in every childhood and something that reminds us of one of Robin Williams’ most-loved performances in movies."6. Esmerelda
"Actually, Phoebus was supposed to be in this picture too... But after finishing her pose, I decided to leave her alone... It's better this way."

7. Elsa and Hans
"I REALLY wanted to draw Hans. Everyone will hate me for that, but he is the coolest character in the whole movie! Yeah, he is the royal a** trying to kill off the whole family... But come on... He has 12 older brothers... It is not easy for him..."

"And no, her dress is NOT blue!!!!!! You will never see a drawing where I make it blue! This dress is supposed to be silver... And it stays this way! (At least when talking about the 'old' movie... The 2015 movie is a different story.)"
