Caricature is an artistic style that exaggerates a subject's distinctive physical features or personality traits for comedic, satirical, or affectionate effect, commonly seen at fairs, tourist spots, and in political cartoons. Caricature artists rely on quick observational drawing skills to capture likeness while amplifying key traits, often working live with pencils, charcoal, or digital tablets. It is both a professional trade and a popular hobby among illustrators and cartoonists.
