This Artist Brings Disney Princesses To The 21st Century

Published 4 years ago

If you ever used TikTok, you probably know that it’s full of adults dancing to children’s songs, cringy duets, and, of course, Indian Joker. However, occasionally you can actually stumble upon something truly creative – like 29-year-old artist Yudelmis “Yudie” San Emeterio who has recently been making the rounds on TikTok with her modern recreations of Disney princesses.

In a recent interview with Buzzfeed, the artist said she saw people giving makeovers to Disney characters and just couldn’t help herself. She says that her main goal is keeping the transformations as close to the original style and texture as possible.

Belle

@vanotyartsSaw people doing “glow ups” of Disney characters so I decided to do my own. I went for a more subtle change! ##disneyprincess ##artchallenge ##belle♬ Strawberry Shortcake – Melanie Martinez

Rapunzel

@vanotyartsThe trickiness with 3D edits is that they’re a bit more involved, but Rapunzel is worth it ❤️ ##rapunzel ##disneyprincess ##gloupdisney♬ GREEDY x TREASURE – conradrocha

Mulan

@vanotyartsI knew that I wanted to do something more dramatic for Mulan, and I love the “ABG” look, so… ##abg ##mulan ##disneyprincess ##gloupdisney♬ Candy – Doja Cat

The artist also edited Jane from Tarzan

@vanotyartsOut of all the female leads in Disney, I resonate with Jane the most. I’m still waiting for my Tarzan, though 😂 ##disneyprincess ##gloupdisney ##jane♬ Tarzan Medley: You’ll Be in My Heart / Two Worlds / Strangers Like Me / Trashin’ the Camp – Anthem Lights

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
