Caricature Portrait - Chong Lee


I haven't drawn anybody for awhile, I did this yesterday for a friend Chong, the cinematographer for SF Stories movie. It was really fun/challenge drawing him because it took me several erases until I nailed it, and it's so interesting to me that as soon as the right feeling's captured on the face, every line and movement of the rest of the body just followed easily without suffering any further erase. It felt like as if the soul got in the character and my hand just started finishing what needed to be done. The caricature then felt alive to me.

Anyone want to have their caricature portrait done? Send me a message! I love to do caricature portraits that show the characters' personalities and emotions, no exaggeration on physical features other than big head and small body ;)
