‘Modern ABCs’ Humorously Depict The Alphabet In The Eyes Of Adults

At a young age, children are taught the alphabet with letters assigned to simple objects. This vocabulary expands as they get older so that they can better express themselves and communicate with their peers.
Decades later, A still stands for Apple, but not in the same way. A humorous series titled Modern ABCs by Chicago-based illustrator Katie Lukes rethinks the alphabet in the worldview of occasionally jaded adults, and imagines them in the delightful style of children’s books.
There’s B for Bae, the exhausting D for Dabbing, G for Gluten and K for Kale, and who needs to make Lemonade when you’ve got LaCroix sitting in your fridge? And the Xylophone is no longer relevant; try Xanax.
Scroll down to relearn the alphabet as a grownup, and check out Katie Lukes’ website, portfolio and Instagram for more charming illustrations like these.
