Facial Expressions When Drawing Cartoons

Every face is different and tells its own story. A face is the best source of inspiration for the fun artist. Whereas, animals are a less source of inspiration.

It’s amazing how caricature distorts your features, yet still portrays an amazing likeness!

Caricatures of politicians can usually be interpreted as insulting. They occur usually when a politician has been unpopular. A caricaturist will sell that type of work to newspapers and magazines. Yet I have never read of any of those artists being sued for defamation of character!

Maybe most politicians have a better sense of humour than we realise. Or maybe they just don’t want their cartoon features to be portrayed in court. Likewise their lawyers, with the whole matter giving fuel to more fun art. Even some politicians in ancient Pompeii were portrayed with caricature.

Famous Cartoonists

George Cruikshank was a famous British caricaturist and book illustrator who lived between 1792 and 1878.
He regularly created political caricatures attacking the royal family and prominent politicians. George III of the United Kingdom was so concerned by this famous artist, that he offered a bribe of GBP100 not to be portrayed for fun.

One of the first American caricaturists was Thomas Nast, who lived between 1840 and 1902. Nast became famous for his political caricatures.

Another famous American caricaturist is Sam Viviano, who was born in 1953. Viviano brought side views into his fun art as well as front views.

Those type of drawings produced caricatures with wide jaws, which Viviano became famous for. He also gets rave reviews for many of his crowd scenes. Viviano is a perfect example of how to make money with fun art.

Many modern day caricaturists make a lot of money with fun drawings.

Popular venues are visited in their quest to make money. Places such as parties, where the guests are entertained with fun art of themselves. Sidewalks and beach fronts are popular places to get customers. Places where people stroll by and get a quick fun feature to take back home to show their family and friends.

Will artists still draw cartoons by hand in the future?

Or will computerized caricature take over! Will reliable software programs be developed that can make caricature better than human artists? I doubt it, but it is impossible to predict the future with any certainty.
