This Artist Is Going Viral For Giving Disney Characters Modern-Day Makeovers And Here Are 28 Of The Best Ones

No matter how much we all love Belle or Ariel, some of the iconic Disney characters do look kinda old-fashioned these days. And how couldn’t they? The Beauty first came to screens in 1991, and the first appearance of the red-haired mermaid dates back to 1989.

But one 25-year-old artist living in French Guiana has decided it’s time to give these animated girls and boys a modern-day glow-up. Véronique Pierre’s beautiful Disney transformations got her a lot of attention on social media, where she’s already topped 630.9K followers and 13M likes on TikTok, as well as 17.4K followers on her Instagram account.

And for Véronique, it’s not always about happy-go-lucky princesses. “I think that we’re so used to seeing our princesses happy, but in real life, not everything is always beautiful and easy. We all have ups and downs.” Hence, the illustrator expanded her glow-up series with Disney characters in realistic settings, and Ariel covered in marine plastic waste surely gives us a lot to think about.

So let’s see some of Véronique’s most beautiful and thought-provoking remakes down below and don’t forget to upvote your favorites!
