How to Draw Caricatures

A caricature doesn't necessarily have to be a cartoon, do not presume it to be so; it could be a painting, or a sculpture, or even a photograph. You could draw what you thought was a portrait, but if the proportions are incorrect, and it is still recognizable as the object you were drawing, and then it could be seen as a caricature. I think a caricature becomes a caricature if and only if the artist intends it to be a caricature regardless of thinking about how to draw caricatures. Keeping all of this in mind you may now enjoy the exciting journey of caricature drawing. I am sure now your caricatures would not look like portraits any more.
