Caricature Collection: October 2009

Surprisingly or not there are very talented artists online who draw caricatures. You can surely make a caricature for/of yourself with a caricature maker and put it on facebook or whatever but you will surely not make it as good as these. I’ve seen a few tutorials online of how to make a caricature from a photo with the liquify tool in Photoshop but I’m assuring you that it’s not the case here. In this article you’ll find just pure art, just very good caricature drawings. At the bottom of the post you have two tutorials for caricature making.

An interesting thing is that the most used people are Hugh Laurie (Dr House) and Bruce Willis. Probably because they have that grim face and sometimes they tend to have curious looks. The guys or gals who have drawn them managed to add them that cartoon look and make them pretty funny. Enjoy the caricatures.

Niall O Loughlin

Born in Dublin in 1970, after graduating from the Senior Technical College, Ballyfermot in 1989, Niall was quickly snapped up by "Sullivan Bluth Studios." During his career, he worked on major films such as 'The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,' 'All Dogs Go To Heaven,' and 'Help I'm A Fish.' More recently as Chief Animator at Brown Bag Films, Niall was responsible for the delightful animated characters in the highly acclaimed Oscar nominated series, 'Give Up Yer Aul Sins.'

Now based in Dublin, Niall divides his time between animation, illustration, painting and of course his first love, caricatures. His work is published weekly in the 'Irish Sunday Mirror' and he is a regular contributor to several other popular magazines.

At the age of 35, Niall has quickly become one of the most celebrated cartoonists in his native country, Ireland. Highly sought after by collectors, most of Niall's pieces have sold-out even before the paint has had time to dry.

In December 2004 Niall became the first Cartoonist/caricaturist to appear on the worlds longest running and most successful chat show in Ireland the Late Late show
