i have seen some people claiming he is painting over photos. apparently, maybe warhol did the same.

This Pacino is a very good likeness

He may be paining over photos. Not sure. His stuff does look like Warhol’s (who maybe did the same).

The IG thing wont open for me. Maybe because I don’t have an account there. That’s ok.

The elephant thing he did for Ellen (it can be found on YouTube) was good. I’d imagine it was freehand but I’m not sure.

IOW, paint by number.

Is it true he can’t read so has to have someone feed him his lines?

Many painters in previous times cast an image on their canvas and painted over that. Using a template is not the sign of a bad artist. You can often see light lines on an old canvas under the painting that shows the required proportions, then a sketch to fit within those proportions to be painted over.

Johnny Depp fan here.
