Interested in Art History?
Read the Unreliable Book of Art History as it evolves on this blog.
About 50,000 years ago, when the Neanderthal man met the Homo Sapien or the modern man…what was it that they didn’t say?
An Ugly Brute? Who?
Isn’t all reality merely our perception?
Morten Morland is the political cartoonist for The Times (London) since 2002. His characters portray excellent body language – they look tensed, limp, worried, anxious, angry, scared…not just through their expressions but also through their gestures and postures.
Visit his site morlandcartoon.co.uk here.
If you are international politics savvy, you should definitely check out his blog http://poldraw.wordpress.com/
I’ll post my next caricature (an attempt to bridge the gap of about 50,000 years in perceptions) tomorrow. Do visit:)
Caricature of a dog?
Not of any dog, but of Darcy, who inspired 9000 facebook users to campaign for her release from quarantine. (He assisted in the search and rescue operation in Indonesia – and then upon her return, he was quarantined despite his tests being clear!) Read the story here.
Darcy Reflects upon his Career Options!
And why not?
What’s there in a nose?
A lot, if those attached to the noses are Nicole Kidman and the Bloodhounds.
Looks aren’t everything…especially with the Bloodhounds!
Didn’t sniff someone’s butt properly – did she?

Neil K Kempsell’s gallery can be found at http://www.mycaricatures.co.uk/ He’s great at bringing out the expressions that characterize the subjects of his caricatures. What first took me to his site was this caricature of Jack Nicholson.
(Note Added on January 15, 2010: Please view my attempt at Jack Nicholson’s caricature here.)
His Celebrity Caricatures can be found here.
Kempsell not only creates caricatures, he’s also a prolific cartoonist. View his cartoons here.
I’ll be posting the result of my own Celebrity Caricature drawing effort (Nicole Kidman) tomorrow. Will you please visit again:)

Golf brought to Tiger – fame, money, and women…along with Nike…and then Satan followed him around!
Who wouldn’t?
Which man could resist such temptation while chanting the brand mantra, “Just Do It”? Think about it!

I started this blog because I wanted to smile. There aren’t many things around me today that make me want to smile. For one, I smile when I draw…and then, I smile when I see artwork that borders on perfection. When it comes to caricatures, I think that some of the best caricatures are done by Vizcarra.
You can view Vizcarra’s wonderful caricatures at: http://www.vizcarra.info/indexE.asp
Thanks, my dear visitors. I have a surprise caricature (of a celebrity, of course) coming up for you tomorrow. Do return.

When a musician finds his long-forgotten given-up-for-lost trumpet in the attic, the rat is caught in a dilemma.
Should I jump, should I not...
What would you tell the rat?
Halle Berry is one of my favorite women actors in Hollywood. The messy hair look was just fantastic – and it inspired this caricature!
Wonderful place to bring up your chicks!
A symbol of Halle Berry’s benevolence towards our avian friends?

A figment of my imagination…a man amused by a wine-glass that curtsied.
Funny! Am I really having this conversation with a wine-glass?
Color Caricature of Jack Sparrow.

Last evening’s efforts resulted in this caricature of one of my favorite pirates – Captain Jack Sparrow! In the Pirates series, he was amazingly unkempt and surprisingly irresistible. Funny that when I visualize Johnny Depp, he’s always the “cheesy” pirate!
Where is the cheese…Captain Sparrow?
Almost there – right?

Update: April 03, 2010:
A Caricature of an anxious, somewhat distrustful, and completely worried man – a man preparing to get a hair cut…perhaps!
Worried, anxious, and confused? Perhaps!
— Inspired by a photograph in the newspaper.
