+# Cartooning Image with OpenCV
+
+We aim to transform images into its cartoon. Yes, we will CARTOONIFY the images. Thus, we will build a python application that will transform an image into its cartoon using OpenCV.
+
+
+## What is OpenCV?
+
+OpenCV is an open-source python library used for computer vision and machine learning. It is mainly aimed at real-time computer vision and image processing. It is used to perform different operations on images which transform them using different techniques.
+In this article, we will try to perform some image transformation using the CV2 version of OpenCV.
+
+## We will install opencv and numpy using the code below:
+ ```shell
+pip install opencv-python
+pip install numpy
+```
+
+## Now, we will import required libraries that are cv2 and numpy using the code given below:
+ ```shell
+import cv2
+import numpy as np
+```
+
+## Here's an example of cartooning the image:
