Self development? Or developing my ability to draw Caricatures?

After today's Jehovah's Witnesses left, I was drawing while watching YouTubes. I like Infinite Waters diving Deep

Getting ready for drawing Caricatures at a Digital Corporate Event that is coming up. I already ascertained that I could do a good job of using the Logo the way they sent it to me. Tonight I drew another Sample Caricature to make sure that my Printer is working for me. Yes. Success. I guess I'm getting used to it. It was Easy this time.

Uhoh ~ I was going to draw one quick Digital Caricature tonight. I used the Template that's prepared for my upcoming Event, but of course I deleted the Customer's Logo before posting them here. Eekgads, 10 minutes into it, and unfinished. I was daydreaming.

So I got serious, well, tried to get myself into check, when I went to draw a 2nd Caricature. 6 minutes in, and I only had the linework done on the man with the big chin. I don't shy away from the difficult ones ~ because you can't control that at a Party. And I had used quite a bit of a predraw.

So I only used face/shape-size and one centerline for predraw on the 3rd Caricature? I think that's what I did. The man with the black beard. 6 minutes in, and this is all I was up to. Apparently I was playing around too much with the Procreate tools.

4th picture here ~ much better. 7 minutes. But I was still not done. I did Not use any predraw, so I got up to Some of the color.

Not good enough. I know I'm tempted to be floaty when I'm alone in my Studio after a long intense day, but I'd like to do it faster.

Dang ~ I cut back on playfulness in order to draw this 5th Digital Caricature fast. Took 7 minutes. Completed enough.

I have some ideas to increase my Speed that I hope will work the next time I have a chance to practice this. Leaving room for playfulness, aka Art

Happily playing around with my Digital Equipment tonight. I drew this Caricature with a White Background. And then with a Black Background. Looking forward to seeing them Both Posted side by side here

I like the Black Background better.
