5.0 out of 5 stars
Incredible!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Book of Caricature (Hardcover)
I had heard this was the "definitive" book on Caricature, and a truer statement couldn't be made! My goodness, this book is absolutely incredible. The caricature samples are diverse and inspiring, the presentation well designed, but Bob Staake's text is just marvelous. Doesn't matter if you're an artist, cartoonist, caricaturist or just a casual reader, this book will have you hooked from the first page. Can't possibly over-recommend it -- truly the most complete book on the art form of caricature.

Bob Staake has another winner!,
By J.J. McCullough (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Book of Caricature (Hardcover)
This book really is the best thing a Caricature artist like myself can have in his libary. Crammed with tons of drawings by both Mr. Staake and dozens of other artists, there's definitly no shortage of examples in this brillantly illustrated book. However, this is not your traditonal "step-by-step, this is how to draw" kind of book. Rather than directly teaching you how to draw caricatures, Bob Staake explains in great detail all the important aspects of caricature, such as how to incorporate the subject's personality into the drawing and what are the best reference materials to use while drawing. Truly a must have for ANY artist.

Not the greatest book,
This review is from: The Complete Book of Caricature (Hardcover)
This book had a lot of examples but I feel it didn't teach how to draw them that much. It showed many funny caricatures but it didn't really give me any thing to work with.
