Andrea Arbeteta is from A Coruña, Spain where she has been creating whimsical art for years. Arbeteta says she loves Greek mythology, the zodiac, historical art, fantasy, and sci-fi:

"I have been drawing my own version of the Greek myths and different characters from novels and films for some years, though sometimes I do not have time to practice and improve as much as I would like to. My dream is to create a series of illustrations about the myths (Greek and other) so that I could illustrate a book about them and (hopefully) publish it."

Arbeteta has accumulated thousands of fans all over the world, mostly from her incredible zodiac and Greek mythology illustrations, but she's also totally a Disney fan and that has manifested in some truly breathtaking, whimsical fan art that any Disney fan would adore. It's clear that she has a few Disney characters and movies that are more loved than others, like Tangled, Frozen, and Brave.

However, she sprinkles magic into every piece of art she creates and it's precisely that fact that has contributed to her long-term success. As fellow Disney fans, we are positive you'll absolutely adore her Disney pieces for their color, sincerity, and softness.

In the great debates around the modern era of Disney princess movies, Tangled and Frozen have come toe to toe many times in countless debates all over the world. Both movies have their major positive points, though.

For example, Tangled was the first movie in which their princess (Rapunzel) had her art style created from CGI that blended computer animation with traditional animation. Some have described this blend as "the feeling of a painting."

Maureen Lee Lenker wrote that "Tangled is a complex tale of a princess on an empowering journey to discover who she really is." However, according to the New Yorker, Frozen's success "transcends the commercial realm." They reported:

"Since its release, “Frozen” has earned $1.2 billion worldwide, becoming the fifth-highest-grossing film of all time and by far the highest-grossing animation. That’s not to mention two Academy Awards, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe, a soundtrack that’s garnered more than a million album sales and seven million Spotify streams, official YouTube video views in the hundreds of millions, and a DVD that became Amazon’s best-selling children’s film of all time based on advance orders alone."
