Another drawing I hadn’t finished was a pencil portrait of Margot Robbie. (And I finished this one while watching a review copy of Suicide Squad… which she was excellent in, but the movie wasn’t great). This too is a freehand pencil drawing.

Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso in “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” Freehand Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing
This one was really fun. I decided to draw Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso to get ahead of the upcoming film (which I’m super stoked for!), and as I worked on her portrait in colored pencil, I decided to abandon the original background for Darth Vader. And then it just […]
Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange Colored Pencil Drawing
Marvel’s just knocking each movie out of the park, and Benedict Cumberbatch was an inspired choice to play Doctor Strange. This is a freehand colored pencil drawing, and it was quite a challenge. I used a little bit of white paint marker to assist in the details of his magical […]

Updated Han Solo Freehand Colored Pencil Portrait Drawing
While talking to a coworker about this drawing, we wondered why I never just drew the part of his gun that was cut off in the original drawing and put them together for the prints made of it. … so I went home that night and did just that (and […]

Kate Beckinsale Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing
Gotta love Kate Beckinsale. “Serendipity” is definitely one of my favorite romantic comedies.

I wasn’t too satisfied with it, so you may see another […]
Richard Dean Anderson as “MacGyver” Colored Pencil Portrait Drawing
With the resurgence of MacGyver with the recent TV reboot, I felt inclined to draw a childhood hero again. I had drawn one or two Mac portraits back in the 90s — one for a friend’s birthday — and I was just never happy with how they turned out. I […]
Lebron and Dwayne Colored Pencil Commission Piece
Every once in a while I take a commission project. This one proved more difficult than I’d… hoped. Ha. It was larger than most pieces I do, and trying to get everything sized just right (freehand) was so challenging…

Sarah Shahi Freehand Graphite Pencil Drawing
I loved the show Person of Interest. And while Sarah Shahi’s Shaw was tough for me to warm up to for a while, she did grow on me, and I felt inclined to draw her around the time the show wrapped up. This one proved to be rather challenging. (Freehand […]

Angelina Jolie Freehand Graphite Pencil Drawing
My grandfather actually drew portraits as a hobby, and I’ll never forget being shown drawings he did of famous actresses (of his day). After drawing so many pop culture characters recently, I just wanted beautiful subjects to draw, and so I decided to keep working on portraits of actresses – […]
