The event will showcase the work of 32 artists who professionally work for Disney-Pixar, Dreamworks, HBO's Game of Thrones, Marvel and others.

FINDLAY, Ohio — If you could create an image of your favorite fairy tale character with no creative limitations, how would you do it?

Well, some of the most renowned artists in the world got that chance and their work is on display in Northwest Ohio. 

In it's fifth year, the Enchanted Brush exhibit at the University of Findlay's Mazza Museum brings together prolific artist from around the country and gives them full creative liberty to create original pieces of art based on existing intellectual property.

This year's theme, which is being called Inspired, will showcase the work of 32 artists who professionally work for Disney-Pixar, Dreamworks, HBO's Game of Thrones, Marvel and others.

A special artist reception will be held with four artists on display here Wednesday, July 17. 

The yearly event has become a staple for many of these artist to help express themselves outside an art director's oversight and many pieces on display are among works from soon-to-be published novels and even upcoming major motion pictures.

"Some of them are even being made into films right now, like the work of Armand Baltazar. So really, this tiny exhibit has had a ripple effect that goes throughout our pop culture, which is wonder to think that in a place like Findlay, Ohio, we can have that amount of influence," said Dan Chudzinski, curator of the Mazza Museum and founder of The Enchanted Brush exhibit

The Enchanted Brush is open now through August 2.
