Alice In Wonderland
That sure looks like Alice and the rabbit falling down a slightly altered rabbit hole. I love the detailing Na Young Wu attributes to the falling objects and surrounding walls, adding her cultural touch in such clever ways.
Princess And The Frog
Na Young Wu, who goes by Obsidian (@00obsidian00) on Twitter, is the artist behind many popular products. Her illustrations are featured in the Japanese mobile gameFuryoudou~Gang Road, as well as the Korean production ofAge of Storm: Kingdom Under Fire Online.
Beauty And The Beast
The "Beast" gets the biggest makeover of all, he is no longer an unidentifiable beast, but instead he is a beautiful tiger.
Na Young Wu changes each fairytale to resemble modern Korean cartoon illustrations, known asManhwa. Manhwa is most popularly used in manga, or Japanese comics. While it has been popular in Japan for a long time, it has been gaining rapid popularity in America over the last few years as well.
Red Riding Hood
While Red Ridding Hood keeps her famous red cape, the wolf is entirely altered.
Wild Swans
Despite all of the changes this artist applies to each illustration, you can always identify which fairytale the picture represents. Her talent shines clear as she is able to keep the original feel of the story while simultaneously using her own culture and style to reinvent it.
Frozen
Frozen was the biggest Disney movie release EVER, and considering how big Disney is, that's saying a lot. Frozen hit incredible sales records and won its share of awards. As as a result, Frozen has been buzzed about endlessly, and some parents have been forced to watch it over 500 times. All that being said, you just might befrozentired of hearing about Elsa and her gang, if so here's a different take on the wondrous tale…
The Snow Queen
Little Mermaid
If that's Ursula smoking from the pipe, and judging by all of the tentacles it most certainly is, she sure is better looking in Na Young Wu's interpretation of The Little Mermaid. After all, Ursula is usually depicted as a hideous purple woman wearing a black dress two-sizes too small.
Na Young Wu has successfully combined East and West in her spectacular illustrations, hitting on so many underlying themes you could stare at these pictures all day simply thinking on them.
Snow White
