By now, you’ve probably noticed a ton of these #stylechallenge photos being shared across social media. The concept is to recreate a self portrait in popular cartoon styles.
The tag was started a week ago by 17-year-old artist Autumn (@beautifulness87 on Instagram). Shortly thereafter, the tag erupted with artists of color displaying their skills.
Not only does this challenge allow many young artists of color to
share their work, it also allows us to see blackness in cartoon styles
that are not traditionally diverse. Check the #stylechallenge tag for more incredible entries!
