15 Disney and Pop-Culture Characters Re-Created by This Talented Fan Artist
Honestly, some of the best illustrations we see nowadays are works of fan-made art.
If you polled one million Disney fans and asked how they felt about the live-action remakes that Disney has been churning out for a few years now, you would definitely receive mixed feedback. After all, there are countless opinions about why these remakes are good and/or bad!
For those who support Disney's decision to remake beloved movies from our childhood, many will say they love seeing these stories through a new lens and in new light, as well as appreciating the little details, twists, and changes that Disney makes when retelling a story that people already know so well. Some people may not particularly like the remakes but still appreciate that creating a new version helps younger generations enjoy the stories in ways that are more meaningful to them.
For those who don't love live-action remakes, you might not be surprised to see that the Venn Diagram alongside people who complain about brand-new stories from Disney like Turning Red is practically a circle. They may scoff and demand that Disney just create new stories, but they'll complain about those stories too.
Funny how that works, isn't it? Well, no matter which side of the remake fence you sit on, you must have an appreciation for Disney fan art.
Whether or not you agree that fan art is another way to retell, relive, and recreate the characters and stories we know and love, a part of you certainly enjoys gushing over the skills, talents, and creativity that artists from all over the world choose to share with us!
