Caricatures Bodies-Color-Fast!

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.

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 11x14.
