This week as I was watching President Obama’s interview on climate change, it occurred to me that I should do a cartoon sketch of him. Fortunately, since he tends to talk thoughtfully and calmly, capturing his expression was a lot easier that I expected. And to my delight, when I showed my husband the sketch later and asked him who he thought it was, he got it right away!
President Obama talking about climate change –
I also decided to work on cartooning some less noble faces, too.
Believe it or not, these two characters share the same face. Separated at birth? Maybe. In any case, I think you’ll agree that they ended up with VERY different personalities!
And, keeping with the challenge of drawing different characters using the same face, the following gentleman all started from the same square-shaped, 3/4 view head.
The Crooked Politician –
The Wizard –
Touchdown –
Someone’s Gotta Do It –
(As you can see, I can’t stop monkeying around!)
Just too cute!!!

I recognized the President right away, too. You’re getting so prolific with these cartoon characters!
Glad you recognized Potus, too! 🙂
I’ve got a few marathon days ahead of me now, so unfortunately I won’t be able to do much cartooning at all. Boo hoo!
