Caricaturists are artists who created humorous portraits of people by exaggerating some features while shrinking others. The aim of a caricature is to emphasize the characteristics of the subject in such a way that the person portrayed is still recognizable.
Patrick Strogulski is a world-famous caricature artist who has produced hundreds of celebrity caricatures. These funny portraits are a combination of fan art and humor, beautifully rendered in Strogulski’s aesthetic art style.
Brad Pitt Caricature
In this celebrity fan art work, Brad Pitt’s characteristic facial expression has been kept, even while the features that create the expression have been exaggerated.
Funny Presidential Portrait of Barack Obama
In this humorous caricature of American President Barack Obama, the artist has made the president’s mouth and ears several times larger than they would naturally be.
Comedian Caricature: John Cleese
Comedy actor John Cleese deserves fan art as funny as this, in homage to his decades of funny appearances in comedy shows and movies.
Dalai Lama Caricature
As with all of Strogulski’s caricatures, this funny portrait of the Dalai Lama shows the artist’s skill. The use of light in the painting creates an almost photo realistic effect.
Jason Statham’s Funny Fan Art
Jason Statham’s films have an intensity to them that is portrayed in this painting of the action man.
Morgan Freeman Fan Portrait
Morgan Freeman has a characterful face even before being rendered by a caricature artist. His distinctive features make life easier for the artist, as this actor is highly recognizable even when severely distorted.
Quentin Tarantino’s Dark Humor Portrait
Quentin Tarantino’s films are known for their black humor, and the artist has managed to reflect this in his caricature of Tarantino.
Funny Man Robin Williams
Robin Williams is both a comedic actor and stage comedian. His stocky frame combined with his enormous gestures and facial expressions create a rich contrast that is celebrated in this funny painting of Robin Williams.
Rowan Atkinson’s Comedy Portrait
Rowan Atkinson is most famous for his role in the comedy series, Mr Bean, in which he is mostly silent. The portrait below shows the Mr Bean character that Atkinson mimed in the series.
Willem Dafoe Caricature
Willem Dafoe has an interesting face as it is, without the help of a caricature artist. In this painting, the actor’s wide mouth and prominent chin have been enlarged to emphasize the character of his facial features.
All of the art shown here was created by Patrick Strogulski, showcased at newevolutiondesigns.
