OF A BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGE

So... there's this meme going around where you take a Disney coloring book page and paint it like a classical painting. I think you're supposed to do one of the Disney princesses, but... I did Gaston. You know how I roll.

Ahaha, while I was doing this, I suddenly remembered that in my childhood I always wished Belle would get together with Gaston instead of the Beast... sure, Gaston's a vain chauvinist, but at least he doesn't have immaturity and rage issues.

Hi, just wanted to say that I love this picture, the lighting and that big, goofy, smile Gaston has is just perfect

I was reading a few of the comments and noticed that you mentioned you think Belle and Gaston might have been a good pairing, with a bit of effort on both sides. I'm not sure if you are a fanfiction reader, but an author named TrudiRose wrote a very interesting story where The Beast did not exist, and Gaston and Belle did eventually fall in love, although they still had the same personalities and traits, for the most part.

If you are interested, the story is named Picture This.
