caricaturists
Satirical portrait artists
Caricaturists are artists who create caricatures—exaggerated portraits that amplify distinctive features for comic or satirical effect.
They work at carnivals, boardwalks, and events, sketching patrons on the spot, or professionally for editorial illustration and political commentary: The caricaturist gave him an enormous nose and tiny ears.
