How To Draw Caricature

I'm Mik Brown, from Miko-illustration.com and Miko-Cartoon.com.

It's all a question of exaggerating certain parts of the body, this is why I don't really like drawing caricatures of friends, because I don't want to lose my friends, you can understand that. But here, for example, is a caricature of Prince Charles. Again, it's fairly realistic, fairly caricature-like.

You'll note I exaggerated his ears, just the whole sort of general features, but mainly his ears are the thing that I've drawn the caricature of. Again, I'm going to show you some simple, quick, quickly drawn caricatures. I'll go on to the next page with different, different styles of caricatures.

Okay, you've seen a few caricatures I've already done, and now that you've seen what I look like, I'm going to draw a caricature of myself. Let's try that. Now, one always exaggerates the features, that's why I can do a quick drawing of myself and I won't be offended.

I'm often asked to draw caricatures of friends, but I find it very difficult to do that because you tend to sort of draw their- exaggerate certain features and some people may not want to see their features exaggerated by me. I've drawn my tongue sticking out, always done that. There we go, that's my drawing for VideoJug. .
