Many caricaturists often draw those rich & famous people as their pictures are easily available. I drew them for fun or to poke fun at them when they are in the news.
Many close friends had warned me to
restrain myself (ζδΈηζ
) from publishing those drawings of rich and
very powerful people. They are concerned I might be ‘invited for coffee’ in a
dark room. I told them: drawing is like an addiction. I just couldn’t stop my
imaginations & urge to put them onto paper. Like what American caricaturist
Al Hirschfeld once said: “Artists are like children who refuse to put down their crayons.” I think he’s probably right.
Now I try to omit/censor some sensitive
details in my drawings of powerful people but many told me they could still
identify the subjects in my drawings!
Oops……..
