Description about the art:
Now I see why there's so much art of Ariel! Her hair is so awesome to draw.
Anyway, she's been one of my favorite Disney Princesses/girls for a long long long time. She's so dedicated to her goal.
Don't make fun of me, but I always get chills when she sells her voice for legs. With all the dramatic music and vocalization going on in that scene (not to mention the amazing visual artistry), it has so much emotion and scary faces.

I was rearranging the Disney Princess section at work yesterday morning, and I finally got enough inspiration to draw the next princess. The underlight is that aqua color because when she's wearing that dress (the one she's wearing at the very end when she gets legs from her daddy), she's standing in the water. I figured it should have some sort of reflecting.

Also, thanks to ~FiniteLuv for requesting Ariel and her silvery dress!

Exactly, the amount of work the animators put into creating the films is phenomenal.


Great job on Ariel.

I know just what u mean! I mean u google that one thing, it comes back with zilch, there's not even that much fanart around. Thta dress is the best thing she wears throughot the whole film it's gorgeous with it being fantastically simple and glittery and she get's what, 3 seconds in the film? No!

This is really good! I think this is my favorite, at least of the ones I've seen so far. I've always wondered how her hair stays up…

It's glamorous! I really love the hair and the expression, and you shaded the arms in a great way. But, are you working at disney? I think it's great.

LadyPhoenix555 [2010-04-22 01:07:17 +0000 UTC]

I really did love this look on her. It was simple, yet gorgeous. Poofy and exaggerated just doesn't fit her, IMO (plus...the pink...yikes xD ).

Lovely picture. :3
