Caricature is the art of illustrating a subjects' features through exaggeration or extreme simplification. We can see presence of caricatures in our daily lives, as street art, in magazines, books and even as comic representations in newspapers.
I had never tried making caricatures before but recently me and @ayushijain were hired for a small project of making 2 caricatures for a couple. This actually made me want to learn caricature and yep, I really loved doing it! I found them to be quick and fun and rejuvenating :) I also made some caricatures for practice before jumping into the final one, which the client also happened to like.
This was my first attempt ever at making a caricature and hope you like it!

Keep Creating
Lots of Love <3
Caricature is so different from watercolor, but you have obvious skill in both areas!
In my opinion, caricatures are more difficult than other methods of portrait drawing because with caricature you have to really refine the essence of your subject in a few "simple" lines, rather than the fine-tuning allowed in more traditional portraits.
Keep drawing!! I bet when you combine your watercolor with caricature, you'll make great art :-D

Yes, it sure requires a lot of practice. But it is so much fun to manipulate photos into caricatures :D

Better than what I can do. I can draw portraits and all but when it comes to caricatures.... I suck haha. I always make them look way to goofy and they dont resemble the person. Thats the hard part. So far youre on the right track! Keep it up aishwarya! Once you get it down the coloring is gonna be the other obstacle :)

Hahaha I know right! That's one of the biggest reasons why I had never tried caricatures. But once I did, it was fun!
I haven't even thought about colouring yet though :P
Thanks a lot!
