Isa draws from an early age, when she finished school, she thought she could dedicate herself to it and began to study illustration and animation, but in the third year she gave up her studies and went devoted to the illustration of pets.
Isa told Bored Panda:
Pet Disneyfication is something I’ve done sporadically in my spare time for about 5 years. I started because I’m a big fan of the old Disney style and love drawing animals.
The young woman who lives in Tilburg (Holland) specifies that she does not work for Disney, but that she is a big fan, and adds that her favorite film is “The Lion King” and that she appreciates a few others.
The idea for Disney-style portraits was born on Reddit in 2014 and he was just 16 years old.
Isaac says:
There was a subreddit where you could offer people free art. I wanted to practice Disney style, so I offered free drawings to people who sent me pictures of their animals.
Isaac added:
I’ve done it a few times and people really liked it, even though it wasn’t very good at the time. Last summer, I finally decided to accept assignments as a summer job because I no longer wanted to work in the hotel industry, and it went well enough that I decided to create an Instagram account and do these missions in parallel.
The project was a success, even making drawings of pets for shelters in hopes of helping them find forever homes through their social media.
