You can get the feel of a real caricaturist is to experiment by doing caricaturing openly for example doing it in functions or family gatherings or party or even to some extend doing it on the roadside to gain some recognition..otherwise no one will notice you..but as I said keep it on..

Good luck on developing your talent into working with live subjects. :-)

What I'm "playing" with now are the Faber-Castell PITT pens. Plus, I do use Sharpies for my quick-sketch caricatures. I get the varied-sized pens from Michael's. Thanks for the note and after seeing your nice illustrations, I guess I had better upload some recent projects.
