Surreal Cartoon-Integrated Art

'Still Optimistic' is a Project Fronted by Gabrielle Laïla Tittley

Gabrielle Laïla Tittley, the brand designer of an eccentric accessories company called 'Pony' joined with photo studio LM Chabot for a project called 'Still Optimistic.'

All of the images have a highly surreal look to them, with regular photographs blended with cartoon elements that were created with graphic design effects. One image shows a man in a bright blue room with bold black lines marking the corners of the walls so that he looks as though he's in a drawing. In one hand he holds a pink basketball and a number of others are shown at his feet, where they're melted into the ground.

Another image in the Still Optimistic project shows a man leaning on a bright pink table, with parts of his Mr. Potato Head face surrounding him.
