Wow... that is simply gorgeous. I kinda wish it were wider, so I could make a wallpaper out of it.

That artwork is stunningly beautiful! I would like to see it used in the film's teaser poster.

There actually is a wider version of the picture at this site, unfortunately though it's watermarked, so it doesn't do any good; unless you or anyone else could get around it. :idea:

However, I did find this picture a while ago that I think could make for a descent wallpaper. I'm currently using it and while it does look a little blurry, it is really quite stunning! It literally looks like you're looking outside a window and starring at the scenery and sky. It will do for the time being, and I'm sure more official artwork will surface soon. Hope you like! :)

I hate you... ;)

Actually, while it is wider, when I use it as background it cuts off the bottom portion, so you lose the whole reflection area and only see the frogs head on the bottom taskbar - at least for my desktop.

Great concept art :D looks really great :D.
Can someone make a clipart of Tiana from this picture?.
I wonder if she actually wears it in the film and if she"ll wear it in the merchandise,posters and etc. or only the blue dress from the teaser,if she wears the green dress that whould be great and orginial because no Princess wears a green dress in the merchandise and too many have blue outfits.

Very, very nice! I'm liking the feel. :)


Once, your new Tiana signature image is too large. Please reduce it in width and, especially, height. Thanks.

Here is a fascinating article by Floyd Norman regarding hand-drawn animation. I for one pretty much agree. Go Floyd!!

I pretty much agree - only pretty much because while I do think "Rapunzel" and "King of the Elves" would work great in hand-drawn animation and (this is pre-judgmental) better than in CGI, now that I've seen "BOLT", I can't imagine it being done in traditional animation nor would I really want to.
