Create Cartoon Me Face

By Carmeline Calvistacro

When I was younger I wanted to learn how to draw cartoons of photographs. It is difficult to draw an accurate cartoon me face because it can take a lot of practice. Drawing simple cartoons and tracing is quite easy, but when you try to draw a cartoon when you are looking at a photo is very difficult.

Some people have an artistic gift and are very patient when they draw a cartoon by looking at photos and their cartoons are not too funny. With me, my drawings look more like cartoons even if it is not intentional.

Crayons are the best tool to use when drawing cartoons. Make sure you use alot of color and bright shades to capture peoples attention and imagination. When I draw a cartoon me face of my family members they think it is hilarious and we post them on the fridge.

As I matured so did my drawings, but I was still unable to draw a cartoon me face that even seemed like a person. I'd try drawing someone's nose for hours and then after a bit it just got so distorted I just would color over it.

You can add lots of colors to your drawings to make them come alive. Drawing women and their eyes is much more difficult than drawing men. I like to draw a cartoon me face of men and then add a beard and mustache. They are easy to draw and really improve the definition of the cartoons features.

Some people take art classes to improve their drawing skills so they can quickly and easily create a cartoon me face. Art classes actually walk you through the drawing process by using simple steps.

Taking an art class is not expensive if you go to a community college rather than an art institute. Nowadays you can create a cartoon me face quickly by using drawing computer programs that you can download for free off the internet. It is easy to find all sorts of these programs online and they are free for the most part.

Drawing cartoons takes a lot of time and patience although it is still very entertaining. One of the most challenging things will always be to draw a cartoon me face by just looking at a photo.

A great gift for the holidays or someones birthday is to take a photo of them and draw a cartoon me face of that person to get some laughs. Several hours of practice is generally all it takes and you will be able to draw a cartoon me avatar of all of your loved ones.
