I first realized Paul's comedic acting abilities when my kids rented the movie "Big Fat Liar" in 2002. I watched it with them, and Paul's character "Marty Wolf" was laugh out LOUD funny!!! Especially when they spiked his pool with blue dye and shampoo with red dye.

Wentworth Miller's EYE

This is Wentworth Miller's eye. I was teaching my daughter how to draw in February of 2009, and I thought I should start by teaching her how to draw eyes, as they are so important! Because in my opinion, if you don't get the eyes right, the rest is downhill? I did this BEFORE I did the full drawing of Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller together. I used a nail to scratch his blonde eyelashes before I darkened around it. Total size of this is about 2x4". This is about the Actual Size?

I couldn't decide it I should shade the background, or not? So I took a photo of BEFORE and AFTER shading the background.

Dennis Miller

Dennis Miller was originally a comedian, and later did the movie "Bordello of Blood" in 1996. He is known for his quick wit, and way with words.
Example quote: "A recent police study found that you're much more likely to get shot by a fat cop if you run"

Adam Sandler "The Longest Yard" Movie Poster, featuring Burt Reynolds, Chris Rock and others. I wanted to do something a little different. This isn't the complete poster, and I added a guard tower & wall. This is ONLY 8.5 x 10.5 so the guys in the back-ground have heads the size of a coin, and I had to use a magnifying glass!

(I used a finishing nail duck tapped to an old pencil to get the negative effect in his hair, then filled in with 2B, B & F...then swiped it with a kneaded eraser. I read about how to do that in an EXCELLENT Book I HIGHLY recommend called "Drawing from LINE to LIFE" by Mike Sibley. www.sibleyfineart.com WORTH every penny! He's an artist from England?
