Ya gurl wrote & illustrated a book!😱

So you know how I wrote a book? 📚✨

Probably a lot of you don't because, even if you follow me on Instagram (where I’ve been talking about it most), posts on Insta last like .5 seconds, so…

But yeah, that's an actual thing I did! Wild, huh? I'm still surprised! 😂

Caricature Drawing Made Easy with David & Charles Publishing is available NOW wherever you buy books!

You might be wondering about my credentials for teaching caricature...

Here's the deal: I don't claim to be a world-renowned expert; just someone with an immense passion for this art form and a genuine drive to share what I've learned. My journey has involved studying the greats, lots of observation and trial and error, and most importantly? Practice, practice, practice!

In this book, you'll:

✏️ Master the foundations: facial proportions, defining features, and exaggeration
✏️ Learn how to draw facial features
✏️ Explore two approaches: simplified "cute-icature" and traditional, highly-rendered caricature
✏️ Discover historical and contemporary caricature artists for inspo
✏️ See how caricature and cartooning go hand-in-hand
✏️ Add personality and life to your drawings
✏️ Turn live-action characters into cartoons

This book is for you if you want to:

🎨 Design original characters
🎨 Create fan art
🎨 Draw friends, family, or famous peeps in a fun, playful way
🎨 Just try something new and see where it takes you!

Basically, if you've ever been curious about caricature but thought it seemed intimidating or didn't know where to start, this book breaks it down in a fun, approachable way.

Still can’t believe it’s real! I’m so proud of how it turned out, and seeing the first copies arrive in people’s mailboxes has been so exciting and surreal. Can’t wait for you all to dive in!

Love,

P.S. If you want to hear more about my thoughts on caricature and the process of making this book, I sat down for an interview with Bookmarked Hub! 📚🥰📚
