See The World As A Caricature Artist

By Joseph Thompson


These days there are only a few people you would come across to, who loves what they do for a living. The world has become a jungle of money makers that everything seems to be about business, with little passion in between. It would make you think like it is nearly impossible to get a job that you would love.

The other is the one who can practically sell anything, yet lacks an element of mystery in his works and therefore overrated. Either way, it is a beautiful world. For what would mankind be without the likes of caricature artist Sarasota.

They say that some of the first caricatures goes as far back as the fifteenth century, drawn by Leonardo da Vinci. These days, it is becoming a popular form of art, even entertainment. What freedom it is to express yourself, and to be able to do what you love, without the worry of how much the paycheck would be.

People only have so much time. Do not get stuck in a box, just because the pay is more than right. It is not about the pay. It is about the freedom you would get, out of doing what you love. Treating it as a job would be second nature. Getting paid for it, would be a bonus.

These artists then have special skills that all it takes for them is take a quick look at a prominent person, a situation or a place. After which they would be able to create something exaggerated in highlighting their distinct traits. The goal and trick is to make the subject hilarious without being insulting and offensive.

Try to hone your art. Take that as the first step in embracing your talent, if you ave not done that yet. For example, try signing up for a painting course, or drawing. While you can have the advanced classes meant for caricature, it is better if you start with the basics and explore first.

Caricatures are pretty fun, admit it. They make a breathe of fresh air, as you see a drawing of people or someone prominent, squished and made to appear funny, without the artist coming across as insulting. If you want to get money out of that, you have options. Being able to display your recent o previous work will be one of them.

When you thirst for it, know that you will not be rewarded with plenty of money, but you will survive. Know that you will have an even better reward in a sense of self fulfillment. That it would be something which can fill so many voids you thought existed. Sure, you may be misunderstood, often underrated. But that is not why you are doing it in the first place.

You continue to create art because you see beauty in it. You go with it anyway, sketch and paint some more, because all that really matters, is how you love it, enough to lose yourself in it. It becomes something more profound than money or any other joy in life would ever be, just because your very being cannot survive without it, so you have found out.
