#1 101 Dalmations by Jonathan Burton

Jonathan Burton says that "101 Dalmatians" is the most beautiful Disney movie, mostly because it was the first time the artists' original line drawings were employed in the final cells via the copy machine technique. He added that “The line work is sketchy, the color misaligned and it makes for a style full of life. My poster pays tribute to this, and in particular the rough production drawings of Disney’s Ken Anderson who himself was inspired by Ronald Searle.”#2 Aladdin by Matt Taylor

For Matt Taylor, "Aladdin" is the pinnacle of classic Disney, so the opportunity to reimagine it is basically a dream project. The most enjoyable element, in his opinion, was getting to sketch that Genie bursting out of the lamp. He wanted to try to include some ancient Arabian design and decorating into the painting.#3 The Black Cauldron by Randy Ortiz

This eery imagery is perfect for one of Disney’s darker animated films. We’re scared of the Horned King and the Cauldron-Borns just looking at it.#4 Lilo & Stitch by Rosemary Valero-O’Connell

“Watching a Disney movie together with my kids is amazing, but making artwork for one of their favorite films takes it to the next level,” said artist Ken Taylor. “BIG HERO 6 is my eldest daughter's favorite, and I love it so much about this film. The story is super fun but it's the city that gets me in, the opportunity to draw San Fransokyo has been a blast and one of the best film poster experiences I have had. Hopefully, folks dig it as much as I do.”Source: kentaylorart
