Paul Giamatti © JRFortson
 
Portrait of artist JRFortson (United States)
Added on Apr. 29, 2009 15:58
Pencil



Subject: Paul Giamatti
Paper: Canson- Fine Tooth Surface - 70lbs weight
Medium: Staedtler Pencils
Size: 7x7
Completed: 4/28/09
Hours to complete: 6

I first realized Paul's comedic genius acting abilities when my kids rented the Disney 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.

Hey I heard they let kids drink wine in France, and that 1/2 the people smoke? True? :oO: :grin:

 audrey - 29/04/09, 23:05 reply
:guffaw: all I can say I don't drink wine ( I don't like that) but when I was a child, my father gave to me some wine (with a lof of water) only for special occasions of course. ang I don't smoke but so many people smoke in France, so you're maybe right :oO:

 JRFortson - 29/04/09, 23:09 reply
lol...Both of my identical twin daughters (now 20 yrs old) have been to France with their schools, and we had a French girl stay here for 2 weeks. They LOVE it there. The farthest I got was a southern accent, ha! I've never been east of Florida! :guffaw: :oO: :grin:
