In this whimsical birthday card illustration, set the scene under the sea in Bikini Bottom with an imaginative twist that marries quirky humor and classic artistic inspiration. Picture SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star embarking on a delightful adventure amidst a Norman Rockwell-inspired tableau. The background showcases a quaint, bustling underwater village reminiscent of Maurice Sendak's meticulous detail, while Aubrey Beardsley's intricate line work weaves through the coral and kelp, adding an elegant touch.

In the foreground, SpongeBob is joyfully holding a vibrant, oversized birthday cake, festooned with colorful seaweed and adorned with an icing depiction of a merry ship, a nod to N.C. Wyeth's maritime scenes. Patrick, ever the enthusiastic friend, is positioned next to SpongeBob, playfully juggling pearls and starfish, each glowing with Maxfield Parrish's signature ethereal light.

Above this lively duo, in the sky-like dome of Bikini Bottom's aquatic setting, a playful school of fish is forming the words "Happy Birthday, Cole!" Their shimmering scales reflect light, creating a glittering spectacle akin to a Gustave Doré celestial scene. The name "Cole" is given prominence with extra sparkle, as the letters are artistically interwoven with bubbles that rise toward the surface.

Scattered around the scene are references to the fantastical worlds of Beatrix Potter and Arthur Rackham, with tiny sea creatures donning whimsical hats and jackets, engaging in their own miniature celebrations. Edward Gorey's subtle gothic humor is captured in a shadowy corner where a small, mysterious sea chest lies ajar, hinting at secret treasures. Finally, the entire scene is framed with Quentin Blake's lively, carefree line work, bringing a sense of motion and energy that encapsulates the joyous spirit of a birthday celebration.
