Caricatures Bodies-Color-Fast!
August 13th, 2007
This client enjoyed collecting caricatures and I recognized the work of many artists hung throughout his house. It’s nice to see a client appreciate the different styles of many!
Too bad my one photo (bottom) is blurry, but if you can see this, I have him with his dog in his huge hand! He and his guests really had a laugh over his request to be drawn with his tiny dog!
I love a challenge and many of these requested themes were a challenge, but this helps me develop my skills for fast bodies and quick thinking.
Good live work you have there Angie!
What kind of materials, and trademarks you use for coloring your live caricatures?
Regards!!

Hi Gon!
I use a mix of markers (Sanford Calligraphy, Pitt Pen, Black Chartpak, Black Copic and the Dixonettes). Sometimes I use the Duo Streadtler marker and Y&C. I haven’t found that ultimate pen yet, and all of these markers have their use for certain features. For color I use Art Stix.
Paper is 110lb Springhill Index, cut 11×14.
