Eyvind Earle

The first movie I can ever remember being really into was Disney's Sleeping Beauty. I watched it nonstop, bribed all my little friends to watch it, continued watching it roughly once a year, and even wrote a paper on it in college.

What is it about the movie that has me hooked (besides my own nostalgia)? It was made in the 50s (I'm obsessed with vintage), it features Tchaikovsky (I've played violin for 12 years), and it features great beautiful/creepy art (my style on the button).

Plus I've always wanted to steal Aurora's look. In modern terms, of course.

Anyway, here's Eyvind Earle, the mastermind behind the scenes:

You are a some kind of wonderful chick - talented, wonderfully expressive eyes (I hit on your Utube),& you write well.

Life is good,

Thank you, for seriously making my day. Not only do I have validation that someone reads my blog (ha), but that was incredibly kind of you. Thank you so much.
