Is this official? It just looks too funny lol

It's official, and classic! The first few years, there were not really any guidelines; the artist was given the name of the card (and its color, I think) to illustrate, and that's it.

New players: "It doesn't grant Indestructible, and it's not an Aura!"

Sometimes artists weren't even given the name of the card. The original art for enlightened mystic was supposed to be for another card entirely

It is. Legends was a wacky set.
