23 janvier 1883 : mort de l'illustrateur Gustave Doré ➽ http://bit.ly/Gustave-Dore Une imagination exubérante, une intelligence prompte à tout concevoir, capable de se trouver à l'aise dans les plus grands sujets, une personnalité discrète : tels sont les traits sous lesquels nous apparaît Gustave Doré, ce débutant de la caricature qui finit dans l'intimité des chefs-d’œuvre réputés inaccessibles au crayon, trop fier et trop fort pour se courber sous le joug d'une mode

You've probably been asked this before-- but how did you learn to draw like that? It's incredible, your likenesses especially. Amazes me every time I check your page. I know the answer is probably mostly Time and then More Time, but is there anything in particular that you think helped? Timed sketches? A certain way of doing studies? Any book recommendations?

*Runs through wall a la Kool Aid Man to answer this question because HOLY HELL DO ARTISTS LIKE TALKING ABOUT THEMSELVES*

Ahem!

Well! The very best, yet worst, but really best thing I’ve ever done to get good at drawing facial expressions was to do three military tours…er…summer seasons at Great America as a caricature artist!

Nothing will give you the practice needed to up your skillset quite like drawing for 13 hours straight while being heckled by large groups of overly sugared, vicious teenagers for 12 weeks in sweltering summer heat.

YOU SUUUUUUCK! Became my battle cry instead of inner monologue of art student sadness.

Thick skin grew, as did my ability to draw likenesses and expressions. (Granted most of the expressions I drew were of boyfriend’s faces all stupidly sappy, ogling their girlfriend who were drawn extra sassy with obnoxious eyelashes. But that’s just how you do with caricatures.)

Anywho!

I’m not saying you have to go join a traveling circus of caricature artists to test your artist’s metal (though it wouldn’t hurt and you’ll have a bounty of bizarre stories for the grandkids when alls said and done!)

However, practicing everyday, while pushing comfort levels and being brave with your lines, will improve your art/illustrations.

And if you think having groups of teenagers making fun of your art, loudly hinting your fashion sense is severely lacking and “DID YOU EVEN ART SCHOOL??” while sticky, little kids swarm into your personal space to the point of almost crawling into your mouth as their parents wander off to the beer garden would actually help you, Great America is always hiring…

for fresh SOULS!

🎶just keep drawing! Just keep drawing!🎶-Dori, probably

Hello!

Love your work, it makes me laugh!

I need a suggestion, because I want to make a Columbo cosplay, and you're an expert, so you're the only one that can help me!!!

I have all I need for the cosplay (the raincoat, the shoes, even a badge made of cardboard), but...I thought: i would like to add an element characteristic of one specific episode, or of a meme, you know...to make it more distinguished! You know what I mean? I really don't know what to invent!

Thanks in advance!!!

columbo carries around a rotating cast of little props including lunch bags, thermoses, cups of coffee, briefcases, and of course cigars. barring that, i'd add his notepad. he even draws the people he talks to

of course in order to make it truly complete, you'd need to omit the writing implement

In March 1919, the Daily Mirror newspaper published a cartoon by the English cartoonist and caricaturist, William Kerridge Haselden (1872–1953), predicting the invention – and some of the effects – of the ‘pocket telephone’.

10 février 1879 : mort du caricaturiste Honoré Daumier ➽ http://bit.ly/Honore-Daumier « Imprimant la griffe du lion sur son époque », suivant l'expression d'un critique du temps, l’artiste fut bien l’homme le plus simple et le plus doux du monde ; le plus modeste aussi, le moins habile à tirer un juste profit de son talent

#OTD in 1955 – Death of Irish Patriot, Grace Gifford Plunkett, in her apartment in South Richmond Street, Portobello, Dublin.

Grace Plunkett, née Gifford was a cartoonist, caricaturist and illustrator who was active in the Republican movement. Her marriage to Joseph Plunkett, one of the leaders of the 1916 Rising, a few hours before he was executed, is the subject of a popular Republican song, ‘Grace’, written by Frank and Sean O’Meara in 1985. Ar deis Dé go raibh a hanam. She was born in the Dublin suburb of Rathmines,…
