Part Two: Manipulating the foundations of the five simple shapes is the largest component in drawing your caricatures. Exaggerations, distance, size and angles, are of the upmost important features...

Here’s my sketch of Snoop Dogg… he’s got a great face to caricature. Snoop has a long, lean headshape but his eyes are very far apart… they almost seem to touch the outsides of his head. With a more serious expression he has sharp, high cheekbones, but when he does his wide stoner’s grin like this he has small, round “cherry tomato” cheeks that overpower the cheekbones. He also has a very lean jawline and a small chin. Finally he has big, heavy eyelids and a strong brow.

This is a pencil sketch like most of my other SotW drawings, but I could not resist adding the blue hair after scanning it in… it’s just not Billie Eilish without the blue. Oh yeah, the original (sans blue) is in the Studio Store.
