Incredible Artist Re-Creates Disney Princesses in Stunning Headwear You'll Absolutely Adore
These are so beautiful.
Jessica Chrysler is an LA-based fantasy artist and children's illustrator who enjoys "a good cup of coffee while reading a good book." The artist "spent her summers tracing the big cats in National Geographic magazine and reading every fairy-tale book she could find in the library," turning her passion into a career in illustration.
Her professional work as an artist across multiple media aside, some of the work she's shared online is simply impossible not to gush over and obsess over. Case in point? Her Disney Princess series.
Dubbed "Tribal Disney Princesses," each of the characters she selected receives makeovers that will leave you with hearts for eyes; the details, colors, and choices are all equally stunning and perfect. As Dr. Dan Siegel, a renowned child psychiatrist, states, "Creativity is not only a fundamental aspect of childhood development but also a vital skill for navigating life's challenges."
