These Frozen illustrations combine two incredibly popular movie styles: Disney and Tim Burton. Drawn by Japanese artist Yoko, the pictures show a quirkier and darker side to Disney's 2013 Frozen by interpreting the motion picture in the style of American director Tim Burton.
The Frozen illustrations cover many of the blockbuster's songs, including 'Let it Go' and 'Do You Want to Build a Snowman.' The beloved characters have telltale Tim Burton characteristics, such as big, round, darkly lined eyes and a playfully gothic feel. Beyond the main characters Anna and Elsa, Yoko also drew Hans, Kristoff, Olaf, Sven and the magical trolls. Frozen's internet popularity mixed with with the cult appeal of Tim Burton results in heartwarming magic.
