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 […]

After finishing Gerard, I decided it was high time to finish some portraits that I’d started but never completed. This one was started in September and wasn’t finished until early December! Freehand colored pencil Jessica Alba. Purchase link for prints: […]

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 […]
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 […]
The best thing about Batman v Superman may have been Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. And I have to admit I’m excited for the upcoming solo film in 2017. This is a freehand colored pencil drawing of Gal Gadot as Wonder […]
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 […]
And then someone wants to pay you to draw your four favorite characters from your favorite movie. Only drawback is you have to give it up when it’s done. 🙂 This is a pencil drawing with red colored pencil accents […]
And how can you not love Emily Blunt? After “The Adjustment Bureau” and “Edge of Tomorrow,” I was officially a fan. I’m interested to see her take up the mantle as Mary Poppins in the upcoming sequel too… Purchase link […]
Gotta love Kate Beckinsale. “Serendipity” is definitely one of my favorite romantic comedies. I’d been wanting to draw Kate recently but struggled with the first attempt (actually, first two attempts if I recall) and decided to try this one. I […]
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 […]
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…
Freehand colored pencil drawing of actress Evangeline Lilly (every artist needs a muse, right?) Fun fact about this one… thanks to the incredible graciousness of an art shop customer, I was able to get the original version of this 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 […]
Gotta love Kate Winslet as Rose in Titanic. 🙂 I love the glamour images I found of Kate from this photo shoot and had a hard time narrowing it down to one. This was all drawn freehand in colored pencil. […]
Here’s my freehand colored pencil portrait of actress Kate Mara. I was surprised by how it came out (and that I actually like it. 🙂 ) Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/drawing-print-of-actress-kate-mara
Speaking of pop culture characters, I decided to venture into the recent reboot of the Star Trek series to try to tackle the current Captain Kirk (Chris Pine). This one was done completely in colored pencil. Purchase link for prints: […]
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 […]
