# Children's Book Taxidermy 'The Art of Dr. Seuss' Website Sells the Cartoon Characters as Wall Art By M | Published 2016-06-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-seuss References: [swiss-miss](http://www.swiss-miss.com/2016/06/dr-seuss-taxidermy.html) & [drseussart](http://www.drseussart.com/taxidermy/) Dr. Seuss is one of the most beloved children's book series that encapsulates imaginative and otherworldly character and places in a fictional story filled with powerful lessons. 'The Art of Dr. Seuss' is a website that transforms these fictional characters into wall art home owners can display by presenting the characters as taxidermy. The macabre spin on the uplifting children's books offers a juxtaposition of the two sentiments. While it might be too dark for a child to see their favorite literary characters depicted as beheaded taxidermy, the detail and artistry in each piece transforms the characters into works of art. Each piece stays true to the illustrations and color scheme by further bringing them to life using three dimensional material. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Taxidermy Art:** The use of taxidermy in art to create unique and unconventional pieces. - **Character Transformation:** Transforming fictional characters into tangible art forms that challenge traditional perceptions. - **Macabre Mash-up:** Combining contrasting elements, such as darkness and childhood innocence, to create thought-provoking art. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Opportunities for artists and designers to explore unconventional mediums and provoke emotions. - **Children's Literature:** Innovations in storytelling and visual representation to engage young audiences in new and unexpected ways. - **Home Decor:** The market for unique and unconventional wall art that sparks conversation and adds a touch of whimsy to interior design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collectible Character Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arr-x-kaws-sesame-street.md) - [Charming Creepy Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deddy-bears.md) - [Book-Themed Plush Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/punchkins-book-plushies.md) - [Customizable Kids Wall Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doodleface.md) - [Book-Themed Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/booksy.md) - [Illustrative Tech Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/richard-scarry.md) - [GenAI Storybook Illustrators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/storybooks-illustrator.md) - [Creature-Inspired Home Good Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-jeffreys-loverboy.md) - [NFT-Funded Children's Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nft-project.md)
