Art can be almost anything, art can even be made from trash or be performed and it is often considered subjective. Different people have different ideas of what art is, or at least what good art is! One thing is for certain, art is for everyone.
One of the coolest things to come out of wide spread use of the Internet is access artists have to platforms that share their art. Over the last decade especially, artists have been able to amplify their presence and popularity as well as practice their skill by re-imagining and re-creating iconic characters in their own style.
What does that mean? Creepy Disney, naturally. Check out these eerie artist interpretations, sometimes they push the boundaries of reinventing characters!

Shawn Coss ArtAccording to his website, here's where he gets his inspiration for projects like this creepy Disney art as well as his mental health series, Inktober Illness:
There's no easy answer to that question, and I get asked it a LOT. The best way I can explain it is that the same way you think to ask that question or any other is the same way I come up with ideas. We all have people and things that are inspiring, but defining inspiration is like defining the shape of water. It's something that happens and I really have no answer, my brain just thinks in a certain way that it forms images with the ideas.
