Do you love Disney? How about art? If you answered yes to both, then you are going to love this post. So, what is the secret? Well, you will have to read on and see for yourself!

They say that everything old becomes new again. For some people (like myself), Disney never goes out of style or gets old; it's always relevant no matter how many years pass by.

A British artist named Cara Kimber has made this perfectly clear with her latest series of paintings on DeviantArt, which recreate some of our favorite Disney characters in a way we've never seen before. Instead of using oil or water-based paints to create the magical scenes that take place inside these stories, she uses acrylic paint instead!

If there is one word to perfectly describe Emma's art, it would be "magical." And not just because the characters she paints are from Disney movies, but also, her use of acrylic paint makes these pieces of art shimmer and come to life.

The paintings are characterized by their bright colors and rich textures, which is a testament to the power of acrylic paint. Acrylics are versatile—they can be used on almost any surface, from canvas to paper.

More importantly, they dry much quicker than other types of paints. This means that artists can create more artwork in less time!

Let's take a look at some of the most beautiful pieces in her collection.
