How to Draw Cartoon Art
The term 'cartoon art' can be interpreted in different ways. Here though, we'll use it to describe the cartoonification of some of the most famous pieces of artwork, ever created.
Works like Leonardo da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa' and Vincent van Gogh's 'Starry Night'. In the lessons found here, we'll design likenesses to these works - cartoon designs that while obviously simpler and less detailed to the real things... certainly share a resemblance.
While working through these lessons - I encourage you to take some time to study the realistic version of the subject of interest first. As I map out the structure before each lesson (shapes, grid, lines, etc.), be sure to study the piece yourself to get even more ideas for how to go about your drawing.
Let's get started then!
