in their own words

Vern's images are looking more and more like drawings of accident victims. In may, he drew a noseless wonder. Now he gives us this profile in courage of a woman with her left eye gouged out. Who is it? Sandy Duncan? A pirate? Garp's kid after the stickshift?

Mystery Picture #4 asks WHERE is my left eye????

Nope. It's...

 

 

 

 

...frighteningly perky "Today Show" host and "Dateline NBC" correspondent Katie Couric!

Hello! I won an Oscar and I have lots of teeth! And a nose.

I haven't updated this page for a couple of months because Vern's portraits were actually starting to resemble their supposed subjects. This week he returns to form with his portrait of a young star who apparently decided to have his nose replace with a gaping hole almost exactly the size and shape of his mouth. Who is this victim of plastic surgery gone wrong? (Andy guessed Leonardo DiCaprio)

Mystery Picture #3 asks WHERE is my NOSE????

Why, it's clearly...

...handsome huge-toothed actor Matt Damon!

Hello! I won an Oscar and I have lots of teeth! And a nose.
