This Breathtaking Disney Fan Art Will Leave You In Awe
Italian artist and professional illustrator Chris Darril is a huge fan of Disney's Beauty and the Beast (and he's a huge fan of horror videogames, too.) As the artist behind the "original interactive fairytale" videogame being developed by Little Sewing Machine, Bye Sweet Carole, Darril's artistic abilities and inspirations are not hard to notice.
Some Disney fan art truly stands apart from the rest, and you'd be hard-pressed not to admit that Darril's art is among those exceptional ranks. With the vibrant and intense splashes of color complemented by the intensity of contrast, you could easily believe he has perfected his trade of digital artistry.
Hailing from Catania, Italy, Chris Darril is also the CEO and founder of the aforementioned Little Sewing Machine where he also created and directed the acclaimed horror game series "Remothered." Via social media, Darril supports his fellow indie artists and creators with much enthusiasm.
While his art gallery is certainly not limited to Disney fan art, his Disney fan art is some of the most breathtaking and incredible examples of his astronomical skill and talent. As Disney fans, you will find yourself just as much in awe as we were when we stumbled upon his work.

1. "SNOW WHITE and the 7 Dwarfs - Wishing Apple"

For over 80 years, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves has been a fan favorite from the Disney universe. It was Disney's first, feature-length, animated film and Snow White is credited as Disney's first Princess.
Disney is set to re-make the classic fairytale into a live-action version starring Rachel Zegler, who made her acting debut in 2021 playing Maria in Steven Spielberg’s big-screen adaptation of West Side Story.

4. "Cinderella - Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo"

Walt Disney is far from the first person to tell the story of Cinderella. In fact, the first time this princess's story was told was in the 1st century B.C. and now it has been retold literally thousands of times.
When Disney re-made their own version into a live-action story, the actress cast as Cinderella (Lily James) originally auditioned for the role of Anastasia Tremaine! Disney's Cinderella is one of the "oldest" Disney princesses, as most were young teenagers and Cinderella was around 18-19 years old.

8. "POCAHONTAS - The Path I Choose"

Did you know that 55 animators alone were involved in designing Pocahontas, the character - not the movie!
Disney's Pocahontas is far from historically accurate and because Pocahontas was a real person who was victimized by the colocalization of the Americas, many people find Disney's movie wildly inappropriate. Disney has made it clear they will not create a live-action version of this movie, but Pocahontas can be seen "throughout the theme parks in various ways including parades as well as in nighttime shows like Fantasmic!"

Today, Disney villains are practically as popular as the princesses, princes, and sidekicks. Although Maleficent and Cruella De Vil are currently the only Disney Villains to serve as the protagonist of their own theatrical feature films, Disney villains have had quite the recognition on a variety of platforms and media stylings over the last few decades.

Chris Darril's art leaves nothing to be desired, except perhaps the desire to see even more. We couldn't possibly recommend you check out his Facebook to keep up to date with his illustrations as well as the latest in the development of his game, Bye Sweet Carole.
We love seeing Disney fan art any chance we can get, but the better it is, the more we find ourselves awe-inspired and Darril's art has truly left us awe-inspired.
