My first Caricature ever...

Been drawing some caricatures this weekend for an Illustration class I'm taking. According to Wikipedia, a caricature is either a portrait that exaggerates or distorts the essence of a person or thing to create an easily identifiable visual likeness.

Do you think I've captured the likeness?? Can you tell who this is??

I was so worried about drawing this & even doubted my abilities. But I always try, & most of the time I am happy with the results. This is my first caricature ever!!

    great first go - you're already a pro :) trying pays off, and you're inspirational to me for that reason. you try and you put yourself out there, even though i don't even know you.
