PLEASE NOTE: These “Battle Damaged” copies of  The Mad Art of Caricature are copies that were sent back from brick and mortar bookstores as “damaged”. They are perfectly readable and useable books with no missing pages or real damage at all. They have dinged up corners or a crease on the cover or some other slight damage that makes them unsellable as “new”. That means we are selling them for only $11.00 a copy (cheap)! Not only that, but Tom will sign them and your copy will include an official “BATTLE DAMAGED” bookplate affixed to the inside of the book! Only a total clod would pass up this deal!

The Mad Art of Caricature! is perhaps the most comprehensive and complete how-to guide on the art of caricature ever published. With over 500 illustrations, it’s the definitive guide to the art of caricature. In it, award-winning caricaturist and illustrator Tom Richmond shares his secrets to creating great caricatures, drawing on his 30 years of experience teaching live caricature techniques and producing award-winning humorous illustrations and caricatures for publications, books, advertising, video games, film, television animation, and clients like MAD Magazine.

The Mad Art of Caricature explains not just how to draw caricatures, but the theories and thinking behind how to create them. It examines what really makes a caricature successful, what to look for in a face, and how to draw it. The reader will also learn how to apply this skill, whether it’s drawing live, theme-park-style caricatures, or creating caricature for publication work. Loaded with everything from basic theories and drawing instruction to professional tips and tricks, this book contains something for novices and experts alike.

Personalization

What a personal inscription? Give us the details! PLEASE NOTE: Tom will personalize the inscription based on suggestions like “Make it out to Bill”, or “This is for an aspiring artist, write something encouraging to them”, or “This is for Tina’s birthday”. He WON’T copy out a quote that came from you if it will look like it came from him. Things like “I love you, little brother!” are from YOU , not from Tom. By all means let Tom know the person this is being signed to is a MAD fan, or a huge fan of the subject matter, or is a professional artist themselves. He’ll write something appropriate that are his words.
