Disney Dumbo
Art Notes
Dumbo is a beloved Disney film about overcoming obstacles and the power of positive thinking. The little elephant faces many challenges and conquers them with the love and encouragement of his best friend, Timothy Q. Mouse. This joyful story teaches us many powerful lessons, from feeling good about who we are to embracing the differences of others.
Disney Dumbo by Thomas Kinkade Studios portrays the happiness and pride that his circus friends feel for Dumbo as he soars above the crowd. This painting captures Dumbo’s shining moment, reminding us, as Timothy tells him, “The very things that held you down are going to carry you up and up and up!”

This painting has just reduced me to tears!!! Dumbo is my all time favorite Disney film, it makes you laugh, it makes you cry!! This picture to me captures everything!
I have “Beauty and the Beast” as the first painting in my living room and I can still gaze at it for hours and find something new!! I will never tire of its beauty!
You’re an incredible artist and your work is stunningly amazing! Keep up the good work!
I hope they come out with a wrapped version of this to match my other Disney wraps!!
I’ve so enjoyed seeing all of the Disney creations of Thomas Kinkade. I am overjoyed to see that there is now a Dumbo painting, as it has always been such a special and touching story to me. I hope that it is in line to become one of MCG Textile’s cross-stitch kits. I’m currently working on Little Mermaid, and it would make me so happy to be able to cross stitch this piece someday.
I want to see another Dumbo painting like this but with the crows. Isn’t it possible to take a copy of this and adding the crows? At least Dandy (the leader), Fats and Specks?
Hello Yusuf,
Unfortunately, we can not add anything to the image as this is what was approved by Disney for release. I do not know if we are working on a new Dumbo image or not, but suggest that you sign up for our email newsletter if you haven’t already, as this will keep you up to date on any new image releases we have.
