Caricatures are often done in a grotesque and exaggerated manner with the intention to ridicule its source, but not if it’s done by this guy. The artist from Austria, Xi Ding has developed his own style as an artist, combining portrait and caricature, turning photos of famous celebrities, movie characters, or just ordinary people into very recognizable cartoon versions. And somehow his exaggerated drawings always look very charming, attractive, and likable, revealing these people’s features we didn’t notice before.
