Designer Wows Internet by Photoshopping Donald Trump’s Face Onto Queen Elizabeth’s Body
If you were a Hillary Clinton fan and still trying to heal from the results of the 2016 presidential election, a graphic designer who grew up in New Jersey has something that you’ll totally enjoy.
Last spring, graphic designer Michal Krauthamer began using her Photoshop talents to face swap photos of Queen Elizabeth II and President-elect Donald Trump.
“Photoshopping is one of my favorite things,” Krauthamer told the Forward. “I wanted to do something about the election so I made [a picture of Donald Trump as the Queen]. It was really funny so I made another and another and another.”
Since launching her Instagram profile at @OGTrumpQueen and posting her creations, the 29-year-old designer now has a following of over 24,000 fans. She’s gained recent notoriety since Trump won the election.
While Krauthamer is not the first person to use humor to poke fun at Trump, her photos seem to serve as a witty device that can unite both Democrats and Republicans.
“There’s a lot of bad news, a lot of fake news. I think this just makes people laugh,” Krauthamer told the Forward. “A lot of the comments I get are like ‘[This makes me] feel better about the election’ or ‘I’m a Trump supporter and I still find this hilarious.’”
This graphic artist proves that when it seems like the nation is divided, we can still rely on humor to find some common ground.
“It’s not about politics,” Krauthamer wrote on Bored Panda. “It’s about the magic of Photoshop and making you laugh.”
