With caricatures, mostly, though the features are intentionally exaggerated. Nose, chin, that kind of thing is better than usual. With forensics, it's just straight bone structure, though if I can, I have the person smiling or with bright eyes, it makes them feel more alive than. Sometimes it helps with identification via the public. Forensics, in my department, are always humans. Anything else I do is whatever subject I have, so animals, furniture, name it, I've drawn it.

[Angela feels like she's babbling, running on at length about things somebody could find confusing, but he asked and so she answers. This is the risk somebody takes when they bring up the subject of art.]

Video would be great. I'd have a visual reference to work from if I can't get the actual person, but in lieu of that, verbal descriptions help too.
