Though I have zero artistic experience other than drawing doodles on class syllabi, this is my incredibly amateur attempt at turning a picture of my boyfriend and I, into famous cartoon styles.

If you don't know me, you may cringe at these and wonder why I am putting the outcome of being on my ADD medication for public display. If you DO know me, then prepare to be either really confused about what you thought my talents were limited to, or you may just feel second hand embarrassment for me.

The original photo and inspiration for this "art project"

I would like to publicly apologize to my boyfriend for turning him into various cartoons without his consent. I would also to thank him for being a good sport and allowing me to use him as my muse.

Quick disclaimer: If you happen to notice how in most of these I neglect to draw myself an arm, I have no excuse other than to say that I am an abstract artist. I am also sorry to disappoint, but if you thought these drawings would have legs, you are wrong. As I said, I don't draw, and I wasn't going to ruin these drawings by pretending like I had any clue on how to properly draw a thigh or a hand for the matter. Thank you.

1. "The Simpsons"

This was my first drawing that really sparked the whole idea. As I stated earlier, I honestly was just wired from taking my ADD meds, and instead of packing for college like a responsible adult, I decided to take that extreme focus and turn it into art. And thus, a picture of my boyfriend and I from semi-formal was somehow transformed into my dad's favorite cartoon.

2. "Family Guy"

Going off of a similar theme in television, you can see my train of thought for how different cartoons inspired me. I had originally wanted to turn my boyfriend into Peter Griffin and myself into Lois, but then I realized that anyone could simply draw a cartoon character that already existed. Therefore, in an odd attempt to challenge myself, I tried to imitate the show's cartoon style while emphasizing physical characteristics from the original photo. I also am floating.

3. "Bob's Burgers"

Currently laughing at how ridiculous this one is. I really have nothing to say about this one other than that I think I perfectly grasped the show’s chin-to-neck characteristics.

4. "South Park"

I almost didn’t include this drawing because of just how mediocre it is. Believe it or not, though the drawing itself may look like a 5-year-old's anniversary gift to her parents, I actually found “South Park” to be the most difficult style to recreate. The hardest part was most definitely drawing the heads as perfect circles without the use of a compass.

5. "Rugrats"

Though we are once again floating figures, and I have managed to give myself six fingers and a broken wrist, it was pretty nostalgic to create myself as a 2018 version of Angelica Pickles. Shoutout to all the 90s kids (or fetuses).

6. "The Fairly OddParents"

This one really just is Cosmo and Wanda in dress attire. Not much creativity to it and to be honest, the sketch looked a lot better before I colored it in. Either way, despite what one may assume, I did, in fact, freehand these drawings.

Well, that was my art gallery. Hopefully I inspired you to go out and try a new hobby. I don't see myself as a cartoonist in the future, but I definitely will hold my newfound artistry to a greater standard on the back of my quizzes and homework.
