OK this trend got me and who doesn’t love a bit of fun mixed into the day 😂
I asked ChatGPT to turn me into an illustrated sketchbook character using everything it knows about me… social media strategy, prestige real estate campaigns, coffee walks, creative chaos, oversized coats, country life and “too many ideas, not enough hours” energy.
Honestly… the Bernese Mountain Dog and neutral wardrobe absolutely sent me.
If you want to make your own, upload a few photos into ChatGPT and use this 👇
“Draw the character in the image, “[insert your name]”, in a free and stripped sketch style.
On a bright white background, freely scatter full-body drawings, expressive face close-ups, handwritten notes, scribbles, rough sketches, exaggerated caricatures and playful versions so the page feels alive with personality, humour and energy.
Do not make it look like a neat character sheet. Make it feel like an illustrator’s personal sketchbook filled organically over time.
Use everything ChatGPT knows about me from our conversations including my personality, habits, strengths, profession, style, routines, quirks and overall vibe to imagine how an illustrator would interpret me as a character.
Include visual references connected to:
• my work
• lifestyle
• fashion style
• favourite places
• pets
• hobbies
• creative process
• personality
The sketches should alternate between polished, overwhelmed, funny, thoughtful and aspirational versions of me.
Use loose pencil, ink and marker textures with expressive imperfect lines and handwritten observations throughout.”
Then personalise it properly. The more specific you get, the better it gets.
And yes… apparently my entire personality is now “coffee first, strategy second.” ☕️
Thanks for the inspo Lauren!
