Donald & Mickey. 2016 by Stephen B. Whatley

Expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley turns Disney into Fine Art ……..a new tribute to Walt Disney's Donald Duck & Mickey Mouse. A throwback to the artist's childhood love of animated cartoons, the painting was inspired by the logo on a 1974 issue of the comic Donald & Mickey (IPC Magazines Ltd) - an edition which contains a letter written by the artist at the age of 9.

 

The work of Stephen B. Whatley, which has been published in TIME magazine, is in private collections worldwide; in public collections including BBC Heritage, The Royal Collection, London Transport Museum Newman University & Westminster Cathedral; and his 30 paintings commissioned by the Tower of London are permanently reproduced outside Tower Hill Station, London.
