Caricature Caricatures Caricaturist Caricaturists: The NOSE - Online Caricature Artists Index http://www.the-nose.com      Significant Scots - John Kay KAY, JOHN, long well-known in Edinburgh as a miniature-painter and caricaturist, and almost the only artist of the latter kind produced in Scotland, was born in April, 1742, at a place called Gibraltar, near Dalkeith. During almost the whole of his career as an artist, Mr Kay had a small print-shop in the Parliament Square, the window of which was usually stuck full of his productions. It was only in certain instances that his productions could be considered as caricatures, namely, in those combinations by which he meant to burlesque any ridiculous public transaction: and even here, his likenesses displayed all his usual correctness. http://www.electricscotland.com/HISTORY/other/kay_john.htm      Clan Stirling Online! Bios Article Kay began publishing his caricatures at age 42, but his etched portraits were much more than mere caricatures of his subjects. Although he spent the first 20 years of his adult life as a barber, he was encouraged by customers and friends in his talent for sketching and drawing, particularly by a certain customer, who helped to finance his transition from barber to full-time artist. The artist who produced this engraving was JOHN KAY (1742 - 1830), a notable Scottish miniature-painter and caricaturist. http://www.clanstirling.org/Main/bios/EpZuuyykEpaRGbekEu.html      Antique prints - Portraits by John Kay John Kay was born in 1742 at Dalkeith, and originally worked for a barber until a pension from a benefactor enabled him to set himself up as a printseller and artist.

A recent magnificent exhibition of the work of the great British caricaturist James Gillray (1756–1815) at the Tate Gallery in London demonstrates that the criticism of morals and manners was not always associated in Britain with puritanism, bigotry, and small-mindedness but on the contrary was once vigorous, joyful, and uproariously funny. Few of the spectators at the exhibition laughed, however: an art gallery being a temple of culture, the nearest thing a modern city has to a functioning cathedral, it would have been sacrilege to have smiled, let alone to have emitted a sound indicating amusement. http://www.city-journal.org/html/12_1_oh_to_be.html      American Big Band Biographies - "C" Listings, Page 6.

The experienced paysagist often finds it best to paint in the studio, working from perhaps a rapid colour note and a series of careful drawings which have been kept till time has erased from his mind all the irrelevant minutiae associated with the subject in nature. Cornelius Ketel was the original 'finger-painter', who practised in England until 1581, and was so enamoured of his own skill that eventually he 'laid aside his brushes and painted only with his fingers, and Walpole says that, increasing in his folly, he next tried his toes.' His victims were well-known people, and his portraits were 'extreme in their resemblance, humorous, exaggerating and intensifying little points of character, they gave offence. http://www.duffin.net/phillips/landscape1956.html      Fletcher-Kinnick Connections The probate record of his will listed all his living heirs at the time of his death.
