Some of my coworkers and I were recently asked to contribute to a collection of artwork for Disney Fine Art Galleries. The idea is for us to create our own artistic interpretations of our favorite moments from Disney films. Considering that I spent a large part of my life trying to figure out how to make a living doing EXACTLY this, I jumped at the chance!


First up is "I Just Can't Wait to be King!" in paper! I don't know about anyone else, but I'm fairly certain that I listened to The Lion King soundtrack cassette on a nonstop loop for the entire summer of 1994. My mother (who patiently listened along with me in the car) can attest to my obsession. Thank you for putting up with me, Mom. This one's for you:)
I have quite a few things to update on soon, so stay tuned! Until then, have a great week, everybody!

Beautiful. You know, this would work for Purrcasso too. :D
Good Lord, this is amazing! Love all of your work, but this piece is especially breathtaking. Were you listening to the soundtrack while working on this?
right with you there, i miss that Green casette tape of the soundtrack hahaha

Ha! Brittney, this adorable! I'm loving the leaf mane on Simba. It reminds me of the puppets from the Broadway production of Lion King. XD

Brittney, you are so amazing. I wish you posted everyday. I hope Disney realizes they need to animate something in your cut-paper style. That would look so original.

So stylish! Love it so much!
Absolument in love to your work !
Je suis charmée, délicieusement emballée par tes collages, découpages, couleurs...
In love !
You really captured the energy of the sequence! The Lion King casette was flipped over and over in the car on my family's vacation to Ohio from Toronto...a five hour drive. My parents were very patient, too, and you know what? I bet our parents kinda liked the music as well. :)
Love your stuff, Brittney. Keep posting!
Wow! This is really cool, I like how you used paper for this artwork. I love the details and colors, great job!
Very cool. This style looks so fun. I love your work.

Another amazing piece! My first CD was the Lion King soundtrack. I had received it as a birthday gift from my siblings I believe. I LOVED (and still love) that CD! It's one of my favourite movies :D
