That Aha Moment

Posted Nov 2008

Can you understand ?? This picture is okay, not the greatest, but I'm all excited with it. It's a very important piece. It marks a turning point in my development as a Caricaturist, as a real Artist who doesn't just copy the world.

It's a picture of Klaas OpDeBeek, an Artist from Belgium. The first photo shows him holding the picture that I drew. It's okay:

Then the picture was hanging around on my floor before mailing it to him. And one day, not trying, no effort, an Idea (Eureka!) came to me. Those narrow cheeks with that big noticeable mouth -- I COULD TUCK THE CHEEKS INTO A BOWL OF THE MOUTH ! I was thinking outside of the box. Hadn't seen that done anywhere else (That's the picture that I posted here on 11/15/08):

Picture 2 (above) was the big turning point. But here's another rendition where I tried a different way to portray my idea. Now I'm just fiddling around with it:

Eureka! I'm a Real Artist, a CREATOR !
