Drawrch #5: Green Shirt

Martin · 1 hour (9:51 PM · Mar 5, 2026)
An illustration of a man looking to the left and smiling. The drawing is done in a caricature style, with the man's various features exaggerated. The man has a long face, high forehead, large protruding nose, and smile with only top teeth showing. The man's short hair is parted to the side, and he has a trim mustache and beard. He has a pale complexion and freckles, green eyes, and light brown hair and beard. He is wearing a green collared shirt with a dark undershirt visible. The background is a light slate color, with a faint glow behind the man.

For today's Drawrch illustration, I wanted to do more of a caricature.

To be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of (most) caricatures. A lot of them overly rely on exaggerating features and less on actual likeness. But it's hard to do them without exaggerating features, since that's sort of the name of the game.

I'm not super practiced with caricatures, so I might be falling into the latter category here, but I enjoyed making it and it bears at least a little resemblance to my reference. Maybe I can do more as this project progresses!

Anyway, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, the Flicks spray paint brush for texture, the Old Brush paint brush for the majority of the shading, and the Soft air brush for the rest.

The photo I used as a reference for this drawing is from Line of Art.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
