Richard Branson Caricature

Richard Branson Caricature by Bearman Cartoons

 

So I am working on some caricature studies of different celebrities/well-known persons.  First up was Sir Richard Branson of Virgin fame.   I hope when I am his age my hair looks half as good.  Why hasn’t he put out Virgin hair care products?

Any celebs you think it would be fun for me to tackle?  Let me know in the comments.

    Jim Parsons (Sheldon Cooper of Big Bang theory).

      He would be good. I could have fun with that look

          OK OK…I heard it the first time

            It’s unanimous!

    I hate to admit this, but I’ve not a clue who this person is. We are not television and movie people. You did a fabulous job though.

    Have a terrific day. 🙂

      Richard Branson is the guy behind Virgin…Virgin Media, Virgin Airlines…etc etc etc

    I’d like to see your take on John Oliver, current guest host of The Daily Show. I think he’d caricature well.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Not sure who he is but I’ll have to check him out.

    Sir Branson is an interesting businessman and big thinker. I guess if I had a fat wallet I could get attention for big ideas.
    I suggest you do Ellen DeGeneres dancing.

      What? and do legs I don’t do legs…oh wait, I did your legs.

    Oh, what an immaculate conception! Well done, Bearman!

    That really looks like Branson! You captures him well.
    The only celebrity I’d like to see you do is Bearman.

      Bearman or the man behind Bearman?

      1. Dave Avatar

        Man behind.

          1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

            Now I am confused

          2. Binky Avatar

            I think I’d rather see Bearman than Bearman’s behind.

        1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

          Hold on there is someone behind me?

          1. Dave Avatar

            Draw the real you 🙂 Of course if you reveal your secret identity then you may lose all your powers.

            Then he might have to live out his years in Wombania under the wine gum protection plan.

            How do you know I already don’t?

            You’re not Mr. X, are you?

    Jack Nicholson 🙂

    Have seeing the clip of Morning Joe I would say Russel Brand.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      No haven’t seen the clip but Russel might be all hair haha

      1. Dave Avatar

        Thanks for putting up with that grammatically horrible sentence. 😐

    Awesome likeness, Bearman…
    I feel like his teeth are about to make that *ting* / glistening sound-effect.
    🙂

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      I think I brightened his smile a bit

      1. spilledinkguy Avatar

        Be sure to note that in his bill.

  10. Jason Salas Avatar

    Great job on the likeness! So Steve Buscemi.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Buscemi is so Buscemi he doesn’t look like Buscemi

  11. Red Dwyer Avatar

    I have no idea who is popular, but have you done Gandolfini already? It could be a posthumous thing.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Thanks…I thought about doing him. Good choice

  12. George Ford Avatar

    You aced this one, B. I knew who it was without even reading the title. The texture is phenomenal. Heck, I don’t even think Branson himself would have a problem with this depiction of his lustrous locks. Good work!

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      I always know it is a winner if my wife can tell me who it is from the sketch before I color or tell her. Thanks G

    2. Rachael C. Black Avatar

      totally agree George. No need to read the title at all.

  13. Bill Murphy Avatar

    Great job on that caricature! I agree Bearman, his hair is awesome!
    I’d like to see you make one of Judge Judy. 😉

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      lol..another great choice

  14. Jande Avatar

    Neil deGrasse Tyson and Neil Gaiman. You should have some fun with those two.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      NDT would be a good one.

  15. Rachael C. Black Avatar

    I’d like to see you tackle Steve Buscemi. No, literally tackle him.
    The thought of this makes me smile.
    Seriously, don’t think I’ve ever seen a good Buscemi.

    p.s. best part about tackling that guy? he’s little. you’ll save money on shoulder pads

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Lol…I could probably take him but then again the best part about Buscemi is that he comes from a family of dentists

      1. Rachael C. Black Avatar

        Ha! The tooth is in the pudding, or so they say. Me thinks we could go on for hours with this one.
        Forgot the point of my original reply: Your Branson is AMAZING! Bearman, you utterly captured the guy’s persona. His smile and hair are fabulous. LOVED the Virgin hair dryer bit 😉

  16. Tony McGurk Avatar

    Excellent work. If Sir Richard had shared his care secrets years ago I may not be in my current follicular predicament.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      You could always do the donald

      1. Tony McGurk Avatar

        Then I’d really come up Trumps

  17. G.B. Miller Avatar

    Just wanted to pop and say that you do really good work. And as for a suggestion, since someone suggested Jim Parsons, how ’bout Johnny Galecki?

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      haha I had to look up who that was. I didn’t know his name.
