App turns user 'selfies' into imaginative and hilarious illustrated art

With the rise of self-photography on Facebook and Instagram over the past few years, selfies have transformed from simple distraction into some bona fide digital art. And one app is capitalizing on the selfie renaissance in a hilarious illustrated fashion.

French Girls operates like a mix of Snapchat and Draw Something. People take a selfie, upload it through the app, and then wait to have another random user illustrate their image. While many of the results are pretty standard portraits, a lot of amateur illustrators have been utilizing the app to put out some pretty hilarious and creative hand-drawn concoctions. Check out the gallery above for some of the app's best portraits.
