Artist Shows What Adults Would Look Like If Their Inner Children Were Visible (22 Pics)
After hitting yet another scary number which is your age, have you ever thought, "I can't be XX, I don't feel like it at all"? No one actually knows how a proper adult should feel, so we should just embrace our inner child, which doesn't seem to go anywhere throughout our whole life. No one asked what that child inside of us would look like brought out, but French Photoshop wizard Cristian Girotto did it anyway.
Girotto took the term "inner child" a little too literally and retouched portraits of adults to look like toddlers. The photo series called L'enfant Exterieur (or "The Outer Child" translated from French) explores how adults would look if their childish cuteness and innocence, playfulness, and sincere emotions were visible. He took portraits originally captured by photographer Quentin Curtat and edited subjects' features to resemble children. And although the combination of chest hair and beards with huge eyes and rosy, chubby cheeks seems a little bit creepy, the result is still oddly adorable.
"Imagine big fawn’s eyes winking in the night clubs or little chubby hands shaking in the offices," says a snippet from the project's description, which, after scrolling through this list, you will be unable to unsee. How bizarre would your inner child look if it was brought out?

She has some really good gossip that she just can't wait to share!
I think it's more of a "Me? I not embarrassed." kinda look.
Load More Replies...Well, some of the others have beards, so a pair of matching earrings... :D
Load More Replies...that chick that could keep up with the boys, and would thump you hard if you picked on her mates. :D
the kid that would be scared by more stuff than anyone else, but was the bravest because she'd face all her fears in order to hang out with her mates. :)
that cheeky kid that was waaaaay smarter than their sense of humour would have you assume. :P
Why does this dude remind me of agustas from Charlie and the chocolate factory
the best mate you could have - always willing to give you a hand on whatever adventures you were creating. Loyal and genuine.... and got the cutest one in class as their partner, because he was such a good bloke. <3
Would help if we knew who these people were, or saw pics of them as adults. Otherwise, meh.
I'd like to see the before and after... also this makes me think "little people" not "inner child"
Kind of falls flat without seeing what the people normally look like.
Are we supposed to know who these are? Or what they normally look like?
I can’t tell if these are cute.... or creepy......or funny.......?
