LLCoolJo art frequently features worms coming out from people's dark black eyeballs and crawling up their necks. This creepy vision is enough to make people squirm in their seats!

This LLCoolJo art has a cartoonlike feel that features bright colors and [dark drawings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superflat-animation).
