Also in the anticipation of Leslie David Baker coming to 2021’s Office Super Fan Festival in Scranton, PA – where I was to be a vendor – I drew Leslie as Stanley Hudson on The Office, with Steve Carell from The Office. Sadly, Leslie stood up the festival and never […]

Leslie David Baker as Stanley Hudson in “The Office” Colored Pencil Drawing
In the anticipation of Leslie David Baker coming to 2021’s Office Super Fan Festival in Scranton, PA – where I was to be a vendor – I drew Leslie as Stanley Hudson on The Office, with hopes he could sign it in person. Sadly, Leslie stood up the festival and […]

Charlotte Freehand Sketch
It’s true… sometimes I just draw random photos of friends I see on Instagram. haha. Charlotte is someone I became friends with over Instagram, and after she posted this image – which just radiated pure joy – I felt the urge to draw a sketch of it. (Thankfully, she and […]

Hayley Atwell Freehand Drawing
Ha! This one makes me smile. I love Hayley Atwell, I think she’s beautiful, and I loved her as Peggy Carter in the Captain America movies. But I also love interesting facial expressions to draw… and the source photo for this, which she posted on her Instagram, just screamed to […]
Kate Winslet Freehand Sketch
Here’s a little “looser” sketch that I did of the lovely Kate Winslet. Instead of spending the usual hours and hours (and hours) of work on a portrait, I decided to do this one as a bit more of a rougher sketch.
Eddie Cantor in “Roman Scandals” Freehand Drawing
I have a vivid memory as a kid, sitting in my grandparents’ living room, and my grandfather showing my family old Eddie Cantor films. I love his comedy, as well as how he blends music with his comedy — he was something special and one of the greats! I’ve struggled […]
Kristin Kruek Freehand Pencil Drawing
I know Kristin Kruek has been in a bunch of shows and such, but I think it’s the show Chuck that I know her best from. The source image for this one was one I found on her Instagram account. I drew it freehand with graphite pencils. Etsy link for […]
Sienna Miller Freehand Pencil Portrait
I couldn’t even tell you where I first saw Sienna Miller, but I’ve enjoyed seeing her in films over the years. I liked this unique image of her, but I definitely struggled capturing her likeness.

Lucille Ball Freehand Graphite Portrait
It’s funny, but I don’t think I was even looking for photos of Lucille Ball when I found the image I used as a source for this drawing. It seemed like such an unusual look for Lucy – and I loved it! I drew this one freehand with graphite […]
Freehand Graphite Kristy Swanson Portrait
In a continued effort to expand my list of subjects, I decided to draw the lovely Kristy Swanson, best known probably as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I loved her in the show Psych and several classic 90s movies. 🙂 Etsy link for the original drawing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1076135341/kristy-swanson-original-graphite-drawing (Prints available upon […]
Gwyenth Paltrow Pencil Portrait
Here’s another freehand pencil portrait that took forever to finish. Again, if you’ve read some of my blogs, you’ll know I tend to randomly start drawings that seem to interest me in the moment, even if I know it won’t necessarily be a crowd-pleaser, so to speak. This is a […]
I’ll Be at Dunder Con at the Meadowlands in NJ, August 6 – 7, 2022!
I will be vending my second event ever this August 6-7 at Dunder Con at the Meadowlands Expo Center in NJ! I will have a table there selling prints of my drawings themed for The Office, and will have some original drawings (the actual pencil drawings) on hand to purchase […]
McKenna Grace Pencil Portrait with dog Gizmo
In an attempt to broaden my subjects, I decided to take a crack at young actress McKenna Grace with her dog Gizmo. I loved her in the movie Gifted and was looking forward to seeing her in Ghostbusters: Afterlife, so I thought I’d try to honor the future Phoebe Spengler […]
Black Widow Movie Colored Pencil Drawing
With a new Black Widow movie (finally) out, I decided to do a new freehand colored pencil drawing of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow. I love her in this role! Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1040952216/natasha-scarlett-johansson-in-black
Han Solo Colored Pencil Compilation Cover Art
Now for something a little different… I have always loved making mixtape cover art on the computer, but when my website JFH started doing compilations in 2012 to showcase indie artists, I had fun drawing the covers or taking photos for the covers for each one. For Vol. 10 of […]
Evangeline Lilly Drawing
Yep, I drew Evie again. I’ve said before I tend to have long days and by the time I sit down to draw at night, I just want to start something new. I really liked this pose of hers, with the hair up and unusually styled. Etsy link for […]
Humphrey Bogart Pencil Portrait
I love classic movies and with me binging a lot of Humphrey Bogart movies last year for the first time, I was inspired to draw the suave fellow. I drew this one freehand with various grades of graphite pencils.

Jim and Pam at Reception in The Office Colored Pencil Drawing

Superman (Henry Cavill) from Zack Snyder’s Justice League Colored Pencil Drawing
One of my best friends is a huge Superman fan, so I drew this freehand colored pencil and marker drawing of Supes from Zack Snyder’s 2021 cut of “Justice League” as a surprise for him for his birthday. 🙂 Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1037349203/black-suit-superman-henry-cavill
Emily Blunt Pencil Drawing
I’m always fascinated by how some realist artists can draw water. Not too many photos inspire me to give the look a shot, but this one definitely did. Emily is awesome and she’s got such a unique – and challenging – face to draw. (And she’s just lovely!) This was […]
Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing of Jim and Pam at Niagara – Autographed by Jenna!
As an Office buff, this has quickly become one of my favorite pieces I’ve done. I even took the risk to mail it to OfficeFunkoPops.com for a private signing with Jenna Fischer to get her autograph on it. 🙂 Now, I love it even more. I drew this one freehand with […]
Margot Robbie Freehand Graphite Portrait
This was an interesting one to do, too, given the leathery/plasticky material of her body suit. Still a fun one!

Kate Mara Sketch
In 2018, when I was working on a series of quicker sketches, I drew this one of Kate Mara. It was fun, and I captured some timelapse footage from the drawing session. Later, I decided to give it a bit more of a finished look, but it’s still kind of […]
Katee Sackhoff Freehand Graphite Drawing
I’m always looking to expand my variety of subjects for drawing, and after seeing Katee Sackhoff on The Mandalorian, I thought I’d draw her as well. As usual, I drew this freehand with graphite pencils.

Falcon (Anthony Mackie) from Falcon and the Winter Soldier Colored Pencil Drawing
The Marvel movies for Captain America finally gave me a favorite superhero with Chris Evan’s portrayal of him. It was sad to see him hang up the shield in Avengers: Endgame, but he was given an appropriate send-off. With Disney Plus’s Falcon and the Winter Soldier TV series, the shield […]
Jennifer Aniston Graphite Drawing
I love the source image I used for this – such a fun pose. I’m definitely a fan of Jennifer Aniston – especially as Rachel on Friends – and I just thought this was too fun not to attempt. 🙂 Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1006294058/jennifer-aniston-pencil-drawing-print-85
Gal Gadot Freehand Graphite Drawing
