Today's spooky offering is based on one of my all time favourite Disney rides, The Haunted Mansion. If you're not familiar with the ride, then the lady in the crystal ball is Madame Leota, the mansions resident psychic medium. She calls on all the spirits of the house and soon after, the ghosts materialise and you can see them going about their business! Have you ever been on this ride? My favourite part is the 'Stretching Room'.

I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but Alice in Wonderland was one of my very favourite films growing up. I watched it countless times and never once got bored. I especially loved the scene when Alice finds herself amongst a whole host of flowers and they sing 'Golden Afternoon' - the little pansies were so adorable! I know they ended up being really mean, but I can't help but like them! Which characters do you like best from Alice in Wonderland?

Here is a little Dumbo tribute I finished a week or so ago! I've always thought Dumbo was one of the sweetest and most gentle Disney characters. I love the scene when the stork first delivers him and his ears unfold - so adorable!

This weeks princess is the iconic Snow White. I've always thought that Snow was one of the prettiest princesses even though the film itself does freak me out a lot! Anyone else find that?

Today's Princess is Jasmine! Aladdin was one of my absolute favourite Disney films growing up; I even had some weird handheld video game based on it. I hope you're all having a great week so far!

If you're not much of a Disney fan, then you may never have heard of the It's a Small World ride'. It's one of Disney's oldest rides and was partially designed by artist, Mary Blair. It's basically an indoor cruise where you travel to different countries all over the world and there are singing dolls in each country. I've made it sound a little creepy, but kids love it! If you've never heard the song attached to it, do yourself a favour, and don't google it!

Yay, Mary Poppins! Mary Poppins was one of my very favourite movies when I was little, and I still think it's great even now. If you're a fan, I'd definitely recommend Saving Mr. Banks too!

Today's Princess is Mulan! Mulan is such a badass and is probably one of my favourites on reflection, heh heh. I didn't actually see that much Mulan merch when I was in WDW so I suppose she's a little underrated. Are you a Mulan fan?

Today's princess is the beautiful Pocahontas! This illustration kind of went all 'colours of the wind' with the little leaves but I'm pretty happy with that! I hope you like her too!

Today's princess is the beautiful Tiana from The Princess and the Frog! I just love her lily pad dress. I wanted to try and capture the mood of the bayou in this illustration so I hope that comes across!

Okay, this is probably a little Christmassy for the start of July, but this is one of my favourite Belle outfits! I've always loved this particular scene from the movie, it's just so charming.

Alice in Wonderland is one of my all time favourite Disney movies and I used to be obsessed with it when I was little. Remember how cute those little hammer birds were - n'aaw!

Today's Princess is Rapunzel! I felt really inspired by Mary Blair when I was illustrating this and I love the way it turned out. If you're not familiar with the name then I'm sure you'd recognise the work she did for Disney! She produced such a lot of gorgeous concept art and even contributed to the design of the 'It's a Small World' ride.

It still seems like Ariel is one of the most popular and loved Disney princesses, and I'm a big fan of her blue outfit! What do you think? Or should I have featured her mermaid tail?

Today's Disney girl is Roxanne from A Goofy Movie! I think she's just adorable - she kinda has the same hair as Ariel too. I'll be posting some of your other suggestions very soon!

I hope you're all having a good week so far! I've decided to start a Disney series focusing mainly on the princesses but I'll see how it goes! First up, we have Aurora. I think she might just have the best hair of any princess (barring maybe Rapunzel of course). Are there any characters you'd like to see me illustrate?
