About: Terrible Artist   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A subtrope of Stylistic Suck. Whenever a character not already informed or displayed to have any talent with art creates something, it will almost always be a crudely drawn thing that would make a grade school art teacher weep. Expect inconsistencies, weird space and size relations, a lack of perspective, and the coloring (often in crayon) to be both uneven and often go over the lines, while being professionally drawn in other departments. Often, the actual drawing won't be near as bad as the reactions they garner (this is the entertainment industry, after all), making this similar to Hollywood Homely in a sense.

If the drawing is so bad no one can tell what it's supposed to depict, it's Playing Pictionary. Often combines with Her Codename Was Mary Sue when in comic form. In some ways the opposite of Fourth Wall Portrait. When applied to the calligraphy, becomes The Illegible. Examples of Terrible Artist include:
