"Well, that's another fine mess you've gotten me into ..." Oliver Hardy Caricature

Norvell Hardy aka 'Babe' aka Oliver Hardy. While I was looking for a reference image for this picture I watched a Laurel and Hardy short on You Tube ... and then another ... and another. I really got caught up in the ... ahem ... "research" I had forgotten what absolute comedy gold Laurel and Hardy were, complete genius.

Celebrity caricature - Stephen King

I was literally doing back flips when I saw the subject matter of this weeks Caricaturama showdown 3000 on facebook: Mr Stephen King. I am a massive Stephen King fan, I have pretty much everything he's ever written and loads of books about him and his craft.

Personalised gift caricature - 'The running man'

A recent gift caricature commission of a gentleman who is the member of a running club. The spec for the caricature was simple "...tongue out. Maybe a shoelace undone, basically, when he runs, he always looks knackered!" and this is the result.

Celebrity caricature: Natalie Portman

I've noticed a lot of caricature artists posting work on various art sites and blogs that they have created for Caricaturama Showdown 3000 on Facebook and I've decided to take part myself. Now, I am something of a Facebook virgin, I do have an account, I even created a page for my caricatures all under the persuasion of friends and family, the problem is that I don't know what the hell I'm doing and to be honest ... I'm not quite sure that I get it. It just seems like a lot of random comments and abbreviations ... LOL ... OMG, etc, etc. Oh well, nothing ventured and all that.

By the way this weeks Caricaturama Showdown 3000 subject is Natalie Portman and this is my attempt.
