Article Transcript

Hello. Hello again. Here is the first of this year’s two PDF-only interactive issues. Just a reminder that you will not be receiving this issue or the next one in the mail.

Plans are currently underway for making #ISCACon27 in San Diego, California the best convention yet. Are you ready? The latest details can be found starting on page 4. It includes everything so you can start planning your travel arrangements, hotel, etc. And for those who want to spend a little extra time in “America’s Finest City,” the convention hotel will offer the discount 3 days before and after the convention. This year the convention just happens to be held in the city that I have called home for the last nine years, San Diego. If you haven’t been here before, you need to come. This is where the people who live in Los Angeles come to decompress, and the highways really reflect that on the weekends!

IN THIS ISSUE

We have a few articles on the hows and whys of caricature. Starting with Don Pinsent’s view on why he exaggerates, and two great how-to’s by Kiko Yamada, who takes us through her process when drawing live digital caricatures, and [[Chihiro Noguchi]]’s demonstration of her beautiful watercolor technique, which is featured on the cover. Austrian member Dominik Zeillinger has collected comments from a popular thread on the ISCA Members Facebook page, starting on page 16, about controlling your line. This is not in reference to drawing technique but to managing the crowds that seem to always grow as the night comes to a close. Also, we have another Flashback article from a 2003 issue of Exaggerated Features by long-standing member, René Pulido. His article may be over 15 years old, but the concepts he shares are still valid.

The next item has been talked about for a long time and I am excited to say that it has finally happened. Starting on page 24, you can view videos of seminars from the last convention! For those who weren’t at the convention, time to act like you were. And if you did go, you can see how much of it you retained!

And lastly, I am dedicating this issue to one of our longtime members, Tom “Huf” Hofstead, who passed away recently. Tom was a speed demon in the land of caricatures and will be missed. Thanks to fellow member Elizabeth Pankey, you can read about Huf’s life starting on page 13.
