Manga Fairytales

'Red Riding Hood' by Chris Burge Illustration Takes an Anime Spin on a Classic

This 'Red Riding Hood' art series by Chris Burge Illustration takes the classic fairytale and gives it a manga-like spin. Red Riding Hood has a mask of red eye makeup and round blush on her cheeks, and her infamous hood now has a long train.

I love modern remakes of classic fairytales, especially in art or photography form. See more shots of Chris Burge Illustration's 'Red Riding Hood' series above.
