Using artificial intelligence, an artist has compiled portraits of several Disney characters giving them the features of real people. And the result is sometimes stunning.

Have you ever wondered what Disney Studios characters might look like if you bumped into them in real life? Some, like Pocahontas, are adapted from historical figures, while others are the fruit of the imagination of the screenwriters of the famous studios. But sometimes the logic is reversed and it’s the characters themselves that inspire the artists. This is the case of Jirka Vinse Jonatan Väätäinen who has been all the rage in recent months with a series of ultra realistic drawings, entitled “Disney Real Life”.
