Another successful month-long, daily caricature challenge has been completed. I didn’t bother to make a post for each day’s celebrity caricature, because I’m lazy, and because no one is here to see it anyway, so does it really make a sound?
Instead, I waited util I finished all thirty-one caricatures for each celebrity (on each of their January birthdays, except for maybe Frances McDormand, who was put on her day by mistake) and made the usual collage of them all. See that below:
- Christine Lagarde
- Tia Carrere
- Greta Thunberg
- Michael Stipe
- Hayao Miyazaki
- Kate McKinnon
- Lewis Hamilton
- Stephen Hawking
- Rigoberta Menchù
- Hrithik Roshan
- Mary J. Blige
- Issa Rae
- Julia Louis Dreyfus
- Dave Grohl
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
- Lin-Manuel Miranda
- Eartha Kitt
- Dave Bautista
- Dolly Parton
- David Lynch
- Geena Davis
- John Hurt
- Frances McDormand
- Daveed Diggs
- Etta James
- Angela Davis
- Patton Oswalt
- Alan Alda
- Heather Graham
- Olivia Colman
- Carol Channing
If you want a closer look at the individual caricatures, I posted them each day on both my Instagram feed and my Facebook page, as well as in the Caricature Resolution group on Facebook. But if you don’t care for them, you will be in the majority who were pretty “meh” about them once again!
Regardless, it was a good way to actively draw and practice real exaggeration while keeping resemblance and different art styles for a month, that I would normally not do on my own, of course. Now the inevitable feeling of “what to do” each night now that I don’t have an assignment to keep me drawing on the iPad while something is on TV in the background. I guess I will have to actually pay attention to the show or movie now.
Oh, and I. Re-did the Patton Oswalt caricature I did here because I didn’t like it, and when I posted the new one, I got an actual LIKE from both Patton himself (or at least whoever manages his Twitter account) and from his NBC series account, AP Bio. Pretty cool to add to my other celeb “likes.”
