Day 15 of Caricature Resolution 2019, and the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin is the subject. For me, I always think, think about that time she was in the Blues Brothers movie and that was the performance I have tried to capture here:
Day 14 of Caricature Resolution 2019 is here and the subject is 95 year old TV legend, Betty White. I tried drawing her exaggeratedly, with the usual mixed success in doing so. I only managed to focus on her cheekbones and dimples, but still not out-of-proportion enough to be called […]
Day 13 is Emma Watson, and I had to go with another comic book character. Drawing her as Sabrina the Teenage Witch, or at least as Hermione Granger, the teenage witch student at Hogwarts.
New representative, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is today’s subject. Given that she also just got some press for quoting Alan Moore’s classic graphic novel, Watchmen (specifically, the character of Rorschach) and that I prefer working in a comic book style, this “caricature” of her as that character was a given.

Day 11 of Caricature Resolution 2019 calls for drawing the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel. I did a more rendered, pencil version today, but still exaggerated.

Former First Lady, Michelle Obama is today’s given subject on the assignment list given to all who participate in this year’s daily drawing challenge. I went with exaggeration on the chin mostly, but I am happy with the likeness still being visible, I hope.
Day 8 of “Caricature Resolution 2019” has Ellen Degeneres as the subject. Besides going from standup comic to sitcom star to daytime talk show host, she was also the voice of Dory, the forgetful fish in Finding Nemo, as well as in the sequel, Finding Dory. Therefore, I drew her […]
I was much happier with my work on the Day 7 of Caricature Resolution 2019. The subject was media mogul, Oprah Winfrey, and I thought I had finally got the perfect combination of a good likeness, a good exaggeration and a respectable amount of realistic rendering. The odd thing, is […]
Day 6 of this month-long caricature challenge, and I’ve already hit a wall with this one. I can’t seem to find anything on her face to exaggerate, other than the obvious unibrow. I just gave up and pretty much did a cartoon. Not exactly a caricature, since I didn’t exaggerate […]
