How to use "Caricature" in context?

There is no one definitive definition of caricature, as the term can be used to describe a range of cartoon depictions. Generally, however, caricature refers to an exaggeration of a particular trait or feature in order to make a person or object more humorous or risque. Caricatures can be created for satirical and political purposes, as well as for entertainment. They are often visual shorthand for opinions and can be used to deflate the ego of the subject.

Some common caricature techniques include exaggerated features, exaggerated body size, and exaggerated facial features. exaggerating features can often be done with the use of shading, color, and line work.
