About

Graphic Design is My Passion is an expression often used by visual artists or graphic design firms in self-advertisement. On Tumblr, the clichéd phrase has been parodied as the sarcastic slogan for images featuring clip art cartoon characters superimposed over a dark, cloudy background.

Origin

On July 7th, 2014, Tumblr user Yungterra[1] posted an image of a cloudy sky with a green cartoon frog clip art and the caption "graphic design is my passion" written in the Papyrus typeface (shown below, left). Over the next year, the post gained over 352,000 notes. The cartoon frog can be found on the clipart website Classroom Clipart,[4] where it displays a copyright date of 2011 (shown below, right).

On January 29th, 2015, Tumblr user hatchergold posted the image along with the caption "Staff be like," which gathered more than 131,000 notes in eight months. On April 15th, Tumblr user dreamyacorn[9] submitted a picture of the updated Tumblr logo above Yungterra's original image, receiving upwards of 130,000 notes in the next five months (shown below).
