Figure 1: Meet the man/fish creature from "The Shape of Water."
I got a special kick out of the Academy Awards this year. I learned, through the above email, that my book, “The Artists Complete Guide to Facial Expression,” was a key reference for the digital sculptor, Nikita Lebedev, who created the facial expressions for the fish/man creature at the heart of the movie “The Shape of Water." So, it was very fulfilling when this magical film won several Oscar awards, including Best Picture.
