Make A Cartoon Me Avatar

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.

Drawing a caricature sometimes looks silly, but it it takes lots of work and skill to draw a carton me face of someone by just looking at a photo. When I use to draw cartoons in the beginning, some of them just ended up looking silly without me trying too hard.

I'd take my box of 64 Crayola crayons and use the tiny sharpener on the back. I'd pick my favorite colors whether or not they matched or not I did not care. I might try to draw a cartoon me face of my buddies and they'd giggle.

Drawing a cartoon me face of someone is still my biggest challenge after years of training and several art classes. I sometimes get frustrated drawing someones eyes because they are the most difficult to draw and can take hours of practice.

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.

Look at art classes at your local community college if you want to to improve your drawing skills. If you want a shortcut to draw a cartoon me face all you have to do is find the right computer download program that does most of the hard work for you. There are several different products that draw cartoons and most are free.

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.

Giving a cartoon me face drawing to someone as a present is a a great gag gift you can give that they will actually keep and maybe even post on their refrigerator. You will be able to draw cartoon me avatars of all of your family and friends after just a few hours of practice.
