Animation Art - From Walt Disney to the Avengers

Sometimes you just want something different. You think still life artworks are nice but you don't want one for your walls. You think landscapes are alright, Bob Ross certainly made a living showing us all how to appreciate happy little trees; but you want something that defines both art and fun.
The answer can come in 2 words : Animation Art.


There are a ton of choices, from new releases like "Frankenweenie" by the imagination only Tim Burton could dream up to the classics from Walt Disney such as "Alice in Wonderland" and don't forget, long before "The Avengers" was a box-office smash, it was an animated series.


"Twisted and Evil" by  Trevor Carlton

You aren't limited to prints either.
Many of the art prints are available on hand-embellished, textured canvas. Look at the colors pop in this piece by Trevor Calton, "Twisted and Evil" and if you remember this evil queen, she certainly fits that title!

The attention to detail on this piece is amazing.
The best thing about hand embellished canvas pieces like these is since they have the one on one hand-work, they are truly unique, with no two being identical.

We're going to cover this in an upcoming article, but also consider the value of your piece. 


"A Fairies' Reflection"
Very often limited edition animation art pieces go up in value. So you can quite often consider that the piece you're adding to your collection (or someone else's collection if the animation art is a gift) is an investment.

A great example of a very limited edition is James Coleman's "A Fairies' Reflection (Peter Pan-Tinkerbell)".

Only 30 of these absolutely gorgeous prints were made and they are a mixed media print. Giclee on canvas with individually applied gold and silver leaf appliques. Each of these prints comes with a certificate of authenticity.



The superheroes on the big screen in the Batman franchise of films to the aforementioned "
Avengers, all have animation art because that's where they started. There's no reason to think animation art can't be considered fine art as well.
