Tinker Bell bathing in a cup of hot chocolate. A naked Rapunzel tangled up in her long locks. A mischievous Belle getting ready for kinky fun with the Beast.
A collection of racy illustrations depicting Disney princesses as pinup girls is trending in social media today, and, as you might expect, the artist behind these erotic works of art emphasizes they’re not meant for children.
“It was just a joke!” says Andrew Tarusov, an illustrator living in Los Angeles who specializes in pin-up art. “[They’re meant] for adult men with a weird sense of humor.”
Tarusov loves both pinup art and Disney, and one day he started drawing Rapunzel with no clothes and the series took off.
“I drew them for my fans, that like different pin-up versions of everything!” Tarusov says.
