Artist Uses Her Amazing Art Skills to Reimagine Famous Disney Animals as Human Beings

Isabelle Staub is an incredible artist who has used her brilliant art skills to reimagine Disney animals as human beings, and they unexpectedly look absolutely gorgeous. Seeing these characters as humans is truly mind-blowing; it's such a unique concept that has never been done before.

The illustrator came up with this idea while scrolling through images on Pinterest and thought to herself that seeing a human version of some of these Disney animals would be a cool concept to try out. We're so glad she committed to this project because the illustrations below are absolutely stunning.

In an interview with Bored Panda, Isabelle discussed her artistic process in detail:

“Once quarantine really hit, I had time to keep exploring this theme. Each piece varies in the time it takes, but typically it takes around 7 to 10 hours total. I would say the most difficult piece was Dory, just because she was the first of the series and I was still fleshing out my ideas, so there was a lot of back and forth on what I was going for,”

She even records videos of her creating these artworks and uploads them on TikTok.

Isabelle's art style is “extremely influenced” by Disney, and she loves revisiting her favorite Disney movies to gain inspiration.

Isabelle also talked about her future plans and revealed a little sneak peek:

“I have been wanting to do some of the OG Disney characters like Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck! I think that would be a fun challenge for me… So that might be next!”

Bored Panda asked Isabelle if being an artist has always been part of her life plans and also requested her to give some useful advice for aspiring artists who might consider her a role model.

“I have always wanted to be an artist! For as long as I can remember, I was drawing all the time,” she shared.“One piece of advice I would give aspiring artists is to keep going and keep practicing. I have been working professionally as a freelance artist for 3 years now, and I am still learning and improving my skills every day,” she suggested that artists keep an open mind and continue honing their skills day by day.“The learning never stops!” she added.

Isabelle also has a series where she draws cartoon characters in her own style:
