One of the things I love about caricature is that there are SO many ways you can approach a subject, so there are endless possiblilites to have fun. These two caricatures are of two NCN (National Caricaturists Network) members, Jan Baptist, and Paul Moyse. I was in a "peanuts " mood and wanted to see if I could depict them both as Peanuts characters. Jan's mass of white hair made him a shoe in for Schroder. instead of a toy piano, I have him drawing on a small toy french easel. Paul Moyse's gald head and baffled expression makes him an instant Charlie Brown. I even put the letter "M" on the trademark zig zag on the shirt.

Good call my man!!, I'm diggin the peanuts style. It is fun to mix things up and keep things interesting. It's great to have a unique style or look, but it's also important to change things up and grow as an artist. Well done sir.
thanks Sean, Your comment is timed well, as ive been checking out your " Simpletons" experiments on your blog. As fun as it is to mix things up as you say, it's NOTTTTTTTTT SIMPLE to draw "simple:
elgin im loving this peanuts sketch, the one of paul is dead on!
Thanks man! I was wondering if it would "work" so many great pictures of Paul on the NCN Forum, I wanted to do something different that would stand out, and like i said , I was in kind of a peanuts mood. Maybe I'll try to do this with some other pics.
