When Tigger loses his bounce while searching for his gigantic, stripedy family tree, Pooh and his friends dress up like Tiggers to cheer him up. Finally, Christopher Robin and the rest convince Tigger that he already has a family in the friends who love him. The Artwork This sericel edition, "Fun to Be a Tigger," was inspired by the 1999 animated feature The Tigger Movie. When Owl suggests Tigger look up his family tree, Tigger begins an amazing journey through the 100 Acre Wood looking for the most gigantic, stripedy family tree around. It's up to Christopher Robin, Pooh Bear, Roo and the rest to convince Tigger that his real family has been with him all along. Winnie the Pooh was created by A.A. Milne in England and based on his son's name for his Teddy bear, Winnie the Pooh. The characters were immortalized in Milne's books and brought to life by the illustrations of Ernest Shepard. The Walt Disney Studios has created this character image using the fine art screen-printing process of color reproduction known as serigraphy. Disney artists, working from original animation drawings and film reference materials used for the production of The Tigger Movie specially created a hand-inked, hand-painted animation cel master which was used as a reference in the production of these sericels. A total of 23 colors were then used to recreate the color image, each of which has been exactingly screen-printed, one color at a time, onto the acetate cel. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This is a limited edition sericel entitled, "Fairy Tale Moments," specially created for the 40th Anniversary of Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty (1959). It depicts key icons from the animated feature as they tell the classic story - (from top left) Princess Aurora in her disguise as peasant maid Briar Rose; the three vigilant good fairies - Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather; the cursed spinning wheel, glowing with Maleficent's evil spell; (from bottom left) the threacherous glare of the malevolent Maleficent; Maleficent in her guise as a giant fire-breathing dragon; and finally, Prince Phillip bestowing "true love's kiss" to his Sleeping Beauty - and true love conquers all. The Artwork Sleeping Beauty was produced in an era of epics. Television had become commonplace, and owing to this new in-home entertainment (and a variety of other business shifts), movie studios and theater owners felt the need to create spectacular entertainment for the movie houses, preferably in wide screen and stereophonic sound. In this way, Sleeping Beauty was really Walt Disney's "epic" animated feature. Because of this, and the artistic challenges Walt has set for his creative team, Sleeping Beauty took six years in production and cost the then staggering sum of six million dollars. With Sleeping Beauty, Walt Disney sought to create the pinnacle of the animated art form. In seeking a whole new approach to telling a classic tale, character animators created Disney's strongest animated human figures to that time. Marc Davis animated the young princess Briar Rose as well as the evil Maleficent - a tour de force of animated acting. Milt Kahl handled the animation of Prince Phillip. Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston animated the three fairy guardians, Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
