Andrew, who has done work a number of fashion and music magazines, has studied art for 10 years, but his favorite genre is vintage style pin-ups and comics.
And while some people have complained that Disney princesses are becoming more and more hyper-sexualized, Andrew's illustrations prove just how much more racy they could become.
One particularly cheeky image shows Belle from Beauty and the Beast standing with her foot on the Beast's head as she wields a riding crop, looking more like a dominatrix than a bookworm-turned-princess.
