Drawings - B-Day Book: Isaac Asimov
My website's undergoing significant structural changes and it's going to take some serious time. Consequently, the blog's on vacation and project pages may look a little sloppy. There are some new projects though, so poke around.
Why so cruel? What do you have against Mr. Asimov? Caricature form should compliment, not denigrate.
Seriously?
First of all, I have nothing against Isaac Asimov. I’ve never read any of his books, nor know anything past the Three Laws of Robotics. He just happens to share a birthday with a friend of mine.
Secondly, it’s not really a caricature. I’m not exaggerating characteristics of Isaac’s face for effect. I’m just that poor of a draftsman when I use ink.
Third, do you know anything about the history of caricature? Or even look at a dictionary definition of caricature? The grotesque plays an important role in the graphic form of satire.
I absolutely love it! Coming from a huge fan of Asimov: this is awesome.
i think its sad that anyone would say this drawing is mean. its mean that you called it mean. i mean people do actually look like this and guess what, its ok. i really like this drawing a lot.
