Need help for Mother's Day present.

[Frank the Ninja]

My mom is crazy for Janis Joplin. I want to do a caricture of her for a mothers day present. Problem is, I'm horrible at that! I tried a quick one, just to get a feel. Tell me, is it recognizable? I used google images for ref. Any tips on drawing caricture or a Janis Joplin one would be HOT.

Thanks!

Not that I have any thing to base this on but you might look for certain aspects of her look of personality that you could illustrate and would sell it as her. things that are imediatly identifiable with Janis Joplin. I would suggest somthing but I am not really familiar with her.


Good Luck

By the way its your mom she will love it anyway.

Unfortunately I think she's one of those people that don't have any obvious features to exaggerate. I would probably pick the hair and glasses to make huge, and the nose wider.
