The 'Lawmen: Bass Reeves' actor tries out his drawing skills for an exclusive video with PEOPLE

Dennis Quaid is still in awe of young Lindsay Lohan's talent, decades after they made The Parent Trap together.

In PEOPLE's latest Drawing from Memory, Quaid attempts to draw the ripped wedding photograph from the 1998 family movie. In the film, the iconic split photo is how twins Hallie and Annie piece together their shared parentage.

Musing about the film, Quaid, 70, says of Lohan, "She was 11 years old and I couldn't believe that somebody could be that talented."

Quaid played Nick Parker in the movie, a laid-back vinter and father to Hallie and Annie, who were both portrayed by Lohan.
