I don't usually study Caricatures at the same time as I'm studying Face Painting, but here I am ~ It just happened.
I usually make a quick symbolic hint of features to dream up my Face Paintings. But this time, I gave a little extra effort to the face-base. Curious about what happens when I shift the iris of the eye up, down, or to the side..... so many different placements and each one hints at a different character.
These iris placements would give different expressions on different eye-bases too. That's something else I dream about. Since I am choosing just One Expression for Caricaturing the person who is sitting in front of me, it's not like tracing shapes, not like a copy machine. Each decision that I make about placement and pressure make big differences in catching that expression.
In this case, I determined that if the iris is:
high, it looks sleepy
centered, it looks suspicious
a little bit Partway at the top, it looks the way a person normally looks when s/he is just looking around.
a little bit Partway at the bottom, it looks surpised (but i think i remember that completely at the bottom is too much)
