Almost Famous!
Wow, the other day I got this email from some stranger on the internet. A voice out of the ether. The person found my blog and was inspired by one of my pictures to draw a portrait of me, and she sent it along. I felt honored and almost famous. I imagine Tom Hanks gets hundreds of these. Check it out. I posted the email and the portrait.
Dear Mr. Foley,
I just saw your blog today and really like it. After seeing the pictures you posted of you in costume for Ricky Gervais’s movie, I was inspired to do a portrait of your “serious” headshot, which still makes me laugh even though it is supposed to be serious. In fact, it makes me laugh more than the smiling headshot. I guess you are just a naturally funny character.
Attached is the portrait I drew. I am an aspiring actor as well, but maybe I should be an artist instead, I clearly have huge amounts of drawing skill.
