The Complete Book of Caricature by Bob Staake North Light Books 1991 ISBN 10: 0891343679   Return To All Books   Behind The Pages With Bob: "I have always felt that the best art 'instruction' books are the ones that get their prioritoes straigh. First they present great visual examples from and eccelectic and world-class group of artists, secondly the captionsaccompanying the art is loaded with uncommon and anecdotal quotes from the artists, and thirdly the conversational manuscript provides the reader with and overload of information that they simply cannot find elsewhere. If you do all that, you have yourself a book that you can truly learn from. The last thing I wanted to do in 'The Complete Book of Caricature' was to stuff it full of kackneyed step-by-step exercises showing how one artists creates exaggerated drawings of celebrities. By showing the work of 18 world-class practitioners of the art form -- and by interviewing them at length -- The Complete Book of Caricature became the all-time best selling 'how-to' book on the subject. Is the book perfect? No, nothing I do ever is, but that fact that I wrote it at the young age of 33, I do consider it a significant accomplishment in my publishing career." -- Bob Staake Summary: Caricature is a skill best learned by example, and you'll find hundreds of examples in the pages of this book.
