You don’t have to leave everything to your imagination anymore!
Growing up we always wondered what our favourite Disney characters would look like if they existed in real life. Our imaginations ran really wild as kids. We imagined what the dresses of Disney princesses would look like if an actual person wore them or what Mowgli from The Jungle Book would look like if he was an actual kid that existed in real life. Thanks to the Internet today, we don’t have to just imagine these things in our minds anymore. The Internet is filled with re-imagined versions of Disney characters and even live-action versions of them. So you can take a trip down memory lane any time by looking at them.
Ema Rajabova is an artist who reimagined the live-action versions of Disney characters for us to enjoy looking at. Rajabova answered the question we have been asking ourselves since childhood; What would these Disney characters look like in real life? Well, now we will get to know the answer to that. Rajabova writes stories, characters and illustrations on her Instagram account that has more than 6000 followers. To see some of Rajabova’s work, scroll down below and enjoy.
