Illustrator Citron's latest Disney posters are absolutely adorable in their depiction of some of the cutest and tenderest relationships throughout the Disney films. Using a solid-colored background, Citron manages to avoid making these posters seem too busy. In fact, the only designs on display on these posters show a silhouette of two separate characters, with the film's title resting just above or below them.
Citron's cutest design is probably that of The Lion King. This poster's background is a deep, mustard yellow. The silhouette of Mufasa is splashed over this yellow hue in an orange color, with Simba resting as a yellow figure cut directly out of Mufasa's silhouette. The delicate minimalism prominent in these posters makes for some subtle romantic tendencies that will definitely evoke some nostalgia in Disney-loving viewers.
