Dad Photoshops Son's Drawings

The fridge is only so big; it won't fit all the drawings your children make.

And don't tell the kids we said this, but we know that not every picture they create is a masterpiece.

If you're a parent, you've probably had to feign pride at the plethora of images your kids enthusiastically give you… especially when their portraits aren't so flattering.

One dad wanted to show his children, and the rest of the world, what their creations really look like when applied to the real world.

Tom Curtis turned to Photoshop to recreate some of the characters his kids have drawn. The results are a bit unsettling.

Tom, who works in content marketing, has photoshopped his own face, animals, and cars to resemble the ones his sons Al and Dom have drawn.

Squiggly lines and disproportionate limbs may look cute on a five-year-old's drawing but when you apply them to a selfie, the result looks pretty unnerving.

The edited images, which range from adorable to terrifying, have been shared on Tom's now famous Instagram.

He now has 126,000 follows on his page and even has a book published of all the things he's created.

If you browse through the images, you can expect to see a sausage-like cat with a creepy smile, an ill-proportioned penguin, half a crocodile, and an upside-down car.

Famous figures like Mickey Mouse, the Statue of Liberty, and even the queen make the list, in a way you've probably never seen them before.

Donald Trump is also a recurring character.

Tom writes posts from the perspective of his sons but occasionally makes appearances on Instagram as himself.

He has also done some explainers on how he's made the images.

The next time your child draws a sun, a pet, or a family portrait, you might want to grab the laptop and have some fun drawing on your own.
