Real Estate Caricature






















Realtor Scott Williams just hired out for an HD Caricature of himself for his branding. He wanted his Ohio-based real estate identity to stand out from the crowd; so his idea of standing by his real estate sign made for a great composition. Scott works for Butler Mohr GMAC Real Estate and you can find him at www.ScottMWilliams.com

Henry's Caricature






















Award-winning New York book designer Henry Sene Yee

I based this work off of his signature image of his three-year old passport. He references him self as a "little grumpy old man". In the original photograph he's indeed wearing a bow tie, so  I decided it would be a great thing to exaggerate with a vaudeville-approach.  It's actually the same bow-tie he's wearing in the original. The strength of the lighting in the original made this illustration extremely rewarding.  The books featured are covers that he's designed and/or art directed for various publishers.  

Please make sure to check out his work at his book blog.
