Artist Turns Disney Princesses Into Horror Movie Villains, and It Will Probably Ruin Your Childhood
I never thought I'd see Pocahontas as Jason Voorhees.
If you're a fan of horror and Disney but feel like the two don't really go together, think again. You've probably seen many 'Disney Princesses Reimagined As...' drawings by now, but I reckon this series by artist Maya Angelou is my favorite by far: Disney Princesses As Iconic Horror Movie Villains.
You'll either be impressed or internally complain about your childhood being ruined, but either way, you can't deny that these illustrations are well thought out and beautifully drawn. As noted by Dr. Barbara Fredrickson, a positive psychology researcher, "Art has the power to evoke deep emotions, and these contrasting themes certainly challenge our perceptions." It's definitely interesting to see the contrasting themes of horrifying illustration concepts and the well-known, friendly-looking Disney art style. Prepare yourselves for Disney terror!
