Cool Caricaturist – Achille Superbi of Italy

It’s time to give the stage to another Cool Caricaturist:)

Achille Superbi is an Italian Graphic Designer and Caricaturist who was born on September 13, 1959. After receiving his diploma n 1977 he worked for advertising agencies until 1984, when he also began to draw for newspapers etc. (Source: Wikipedia here .)

I like his work for his fine brushwork and smooth presentation.

Visit Achille Superbi’s simple but interesting website here.

Until I put together my drawing of Picasso and Dali…I wonder how I missed them:)

Cool Caricaturist – Don Pinsent

Don Pinsent’s self-caricature inspired me to explore his work in detail…and when I did, his sketches had me stumped! The boldness of his lines and his ability to maintain the characteristic expression of his subjects despite applying extreme exaggerations, is awesome.

To the learners and the admirers of the quirky art of caricature, I recommend:

• Don Pinsent’s Blog
• Don Pinsent’s Website and Gallery

Do view his following finished works:

• Rolling Stones
• Albert Einstein
• Elvis Presley
• Shakespeare
• Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson)

…and the following visualization sketches:

• Larry King (Note the shoulders, the eye-glasses, and the nose.)
• Paris Hilton (Note the eyes and the lips)
• Brad Pitt
• Madonna
