In San Francisco's legendary Fisherman's Wharf, a rare breed of artists can be found practicing their time-honored craft. They are the caricaturists. To some, these people are nothing more than the assholes of the art world--mere buffoons who exaggerate and contort one's features into something vaguely human, while lingering tourists look on, idiotically grinning, as if they'd just witnessed the birth of a baby deer.

But to others, like myself, caricature artists are wise, intuitive bohemians who, for a small cash compensation, use the language of the canvas to reveal hidden truth....


MY QUEST: To prove the wisdom, insight, and validity of the Fisherman's Wharf caricature artists, and to discover my inner self in the process. To see if these masters can draw the "true me," even if I give them ludicrously false personal information.
