Description A piece celebrating all that is good magic in the disney universes. Ranging from deceased fathers, to magical fairys, from gods and wizards to genies and forces of nature. All lending their force to our little hero against an attack to disney castle.

This is definitely my biggest work to date, with more than 15 characters on a single piece and each and everyone of them separate from the other. I always try to do that when the characters are not directly interacting in the piece (i.e. Mushu and the Genie are in a single layer, not two). I love Disney. I am not OVERLY fanatic but I enjoyed their movies when I was a child (and I still do!!) but I mostly stick to the canons movies and a few of the sequels.

So my philosophy behind this is, I see that everybody draws the princesses and the villains and that's all very good but why not give some very well deserved love to the magical creatures that actually help our heroes and heroines to make their dreams come true and defeat the villains! My first idea was to make something similar to my Evil Flush piece focusing on only a few (it was going to be blue-themed with Merlin, Genie, Blue Fairy, Fairy Godmother and Triton) but when I was doing research the cast of magical supporting characters was just so big I decided to expand and voila, the idea for the piece was born.

I decided to stick to the the original characters own design and drawing style and unite them under a coloring style.

One rule I had was to NOT include the titular character(s) or protagonists, that's why there is no Elsa or, to some extent, Pocahontas or Ariel. Also, I took some artistic licenses with Grandmother Willow (I really love the character) because she can count as an extension of Pocahontas psique (same reason why the gargoyles from Notre Dame aren't included, they seemed part of Quasimodo's or anything from Wonderland since I truly believe it was all Alice's on drugs ) and Mufasa's Ghost, since magic isn't necessarily a thing in the Lion King's world but I thought it would pair well with Atlantis' Heart on the other corner (and also, I REALLY wanted to include the Lion King). The only regret I have is the floating position of the Magic Harp, but she was a last minute addition and so she doesn't have a more grounded position (since she really can't fly) but I also really wanted to include hear and I beat myself for not thinking about her before. Other than that, the rest of the character are either magical or mystical or forces of nature, and at the end of the day, that's what magic really is...right?

There are a couple of easter eggs who aren't a big focus, let's see if you can find them

This is one of the best Disney artworks I have seen in awhile.
Usually you see just one, or maybe two different movies in one image, so seeing a whole collage is always a nice turn.
And it's usually a group of protagonists you see, not often the magical side-kicks.
Mufasa's Ghost could be considered a form a magic to some, so it does make sense his there. He helped Simba, the main protagonist, find his true calling, despite needing some help from others (Nala and Rafiki)
I really like how you have Grandmother Willow here, as I feel she is a character lacking acknowledgement. If you think about, without her, Pocahontas, the main protagonist, would have never been able to speak with John Smith, would never understood what her dream meant, and who knows how Pocahontas would be without her support.Β 
I find the part where you have not only Sitka, but the other Great Spirits. They really were the ones who made the movie what it was. Without them, we'd have a completely different story. There would have been no totems to anger Kenai, or turn him into the bear, hence never meeting Koda or being chased by Denahi. Well I suppose something like that could happen, but yet, it's still doubtful. It definitely would have been a completely different movie.
Seeing the part where Mickey is on the cliff overlooking the castle, it almost seems as the trolls from Frozen are there. If that is the case, that is a very interesting place for them, because it then sparks the question, why did Mickey go see the trolls? Unless, did Mickey meet all of these magical entities, and seek guidance and/or help from each and every one of them to continue his quest?Β 
This piece is beautiful nonetheless, no matter what story it may hold in the views of the audience.Β

Wow, what a great and thoughtful comment. You really took the time to look and analyze the picture which is really rewarding for me. I agree with everything you said and good eye on spotting and associating the trolls of Frozen not everyone saw that. Thank you so much!

Ain't nobody got time for dat! Hahaha joking, but yeah I can see how all or most of them could form some kind of inter-dimensional magic council or some other stuff. You know, the threads behind the heroes actions and stuff. All in a good way, I suppose haha.
