Meet this creative powerhouse.
Luca Pinelli can make any artistic wish come true. Get to know this magic-maker and how he brought to life this fantastical card.
In this card, you visualized a very well-known lyric. How did you go about doing so?
Luca: This card was very cool to create. It was my first card with two characters and the chemistry between Aladdin and The Genie is among the best, in my opinion. Before I started working, I watched the movie again. Since I like to have something in the background while drawing, I alternated the Aladdin films and music with boxing films to get into the mood better. It was interesting to imagine them in a different context from their own, perhaps in their spare time.
What’s your favorite card in your Disney Lorcana collection?
Luca: I can say that one of my favorites is definitely Scar – Vicious Cheater, so majestic!
What’s your favorite Disney memory?
Luca: This is a really difficult question, I grew up with the Disney universe and have many fond memories of it. The memory I cherish most I think is related to my grandmother who gave me Mickey Mouse comics every week when I was a child. I remember very well with how much anticipation I waited for those moments and how nice it was for her too.
What animal would you choose to have as your Disney animal sidekick?
Luca: I think it would be an otter. He would be a great playmate in water parks and always have the right object in his chest pocket (most of the time a HB pencil)!
