EXTREME Caricature art

Jesse Moody

Oh man a friend sent me this and I just had to share. I wish I could do caricature art like this guy. I would have so much fun. But knowing the ways I am I would probably get shot, stabbed or just beat up and then the joke would be on me.

Anyways enjoy the video

That's pretty cool. Some nice caricatures, although the quality doesn't seem that consistent between different pieces.

Sebastian Kruger ( http://www.krugerstars.com/ ) is my favourite, he just has ridiculous amounts of style and skill with paint. I've got his "Krugerstars" book, really amazing to see them all printed at 15"x11" or something (although I think a lot of the original paintings are a lot bigger).

wow, this stuff is just insane. being able to distort so much yet remain recognizable is just awesome. I have no idea how to do anything even close to this sort of art. now im interested and curious lol

I worked with him over spring break, he's working for So Animation in New York now, but he came down to Tampa to do some caricature work at Busch Gardens for a couple weeks, I'm heading to the Caricature convetion in October, it should be fun.


Most people don't realize what a 'caricature' is, joe exemplifies the definition. It's not a portrait, it's an exaggeration of the features.

Caricature:
1 : exaggeration by means of often ludicrous distortion of parts or characteristics
2 : a representation especially in literature or art that has the qualities of caricature
3 : a distortion so gross as to seem like caricature
Joe had a hand in doing those "Cab Driver" snippits on Fox. He did some of the animation and he was the voice of the 'translater' on the learn english tapes.

Dekard yeah thats why a lot of people get mad at him when they see it. That little girl with the braces from the first video must have walked away crying haha. Man the power you have. You can totally ruin a persons whole park experience in under 10 minutes. I wish I had that job.

ME: Hey you having a good time?
Customer: Yeah this is the best day ever!

..... 10 minutes later.

ME: Here you go.
Customer: What? Do I really? No? Why? (runs away crying)
ME: hahaha

yeah, when we sit them down, we tell them, it's our job to make fun of you and tell em how bad we are going to 'jack em up'. Joe's the VP of NCN now, and my boss was the president for a couple years a few years ago. It's a pretty neat gig, at the conventions it's a small gathering like 200 people or so and you can rub elbows with some big names like Tom Richmond from Mad Magazine, Steven Silver from Kim Possible, and people like Sebastian Kruger, I've been told my art will probably get better like 10x fold by attending and seeing how everyone else works.
