In today's rendering you'll see three different versions. The first: (and you can see it in the upper left hand corner) shows a toothy Billy Bob; in the middle you can see the more realistic version of Billy Bob; in the lower right you can see a still wackier version. I think the more realistic version, the middle version, is the most pleasing and accurate. What do you think? I'm going to go into more detail in the next Communiqué about what makes Billy Bob drawable. And we'll analyze his features, hair and expression one by one and piece by piece. So I'll keep the text short tonight and let you enjoy today's picture. When the Archives are updated, I'll post larger versions of all three so you can compare each. Also, expect to see the first "Flash Interactive" lessons within the next 2-3 weeks. "Flash" is perfect for the kind of lessons I have in mind - you'll have a chance to give me all the feedback you'd like to too. (I appreciate all and any comments, questions and criticisms you might have :-). So keep on drawing and talk to you soon. Warmly, -Jeff PS Here's some links to web photos of Mr. Thornton Yahoo's photo gallery: http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hc&id=1800018605&cf=mm&intl=us The photos I drew Billy Bob from were in the November issue of "Venice" mag: http://www.venicemag.com In fact, here's a link to the photos from the same photo shoot that were in the magazine - the ones I drew Billy from: http://www.venicemag.com/features/billybob.htm (The Venice Magazine site is also a gold mine of quality celebrity photos.)
