I had attempted a graphite drawing of actress Christina Hendricks, but I just wasn’t happy with it. I ended up going for a quicker, slightly rougher marker and colored pencil sketch of Christina that you see here. It was different than what I normally do, but it was an enjoyable […]

Colored Pencil and Marker Drawing of Steve Carell as “Prison Mike” in “The Office”
As a big fan of The Office, I felt it was nearly a must to draw Michael Scott’s “Prison Mike” persona. I’ve seen a lot of artistic representations of this image / character, but I caved and decided to take a stab at my own. 🙂 I drew it freehand with […]
Graphite Portrait of Salma Hayek
How can you not love Salma Hayek? This was a unique pose to draw – and a fun one. I used all graphite, drawn freehand, on 9×12 Strathmore Art smooth Bristol paper. Etsy link to purchase the original drawing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/777421510/salma-hayek-original-pencil-drawing
Eiza Gonzalez Freehand Timelapse Sketch
I figured I’d change things up a bit with a graphite “sketch” portrait of model/actress Eiza Gonzalez and ended up recording the whole thing via timelapse in a couple different sessions and then stitched it all together. You can watch the video below: Etsy link for the original drawing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/785864987/eiza-gonzalez-original-pencil-drawing […]
Freehand Graphite Drawing of Dwight and Jim in “The Office”
The Office fanbase has been some of the most encouraging and supportive of my work. And with it being my favorite show, it makes it easier to want to make more new artwork based around some of my favorite characters. This one featuring Jim giving the his classic look just […]
Updated Adrian Monk (Tony Shalhoub) Graphite Drawing
(new updated version) In 2011, after I started getting back into drawing regularly, I did a freehand graphite drawing of Tony Shalhoub as the OCD detective, Adrian Monk. Over time, though, I felt pretty unimpressed by the work I’d done on it, so I decided, after rewatching the show again […]
Colored Pencil “Seinfeld” Group
I’m definitely a fan of the show Seinfeld and Jerry’s standup comedy. While this foursome were pretty terrible people on the show, the show didn’t take itself seriously, making it pretty entertaining to watch. I drew Jerry once by himself and wasn’t happy with how it turned out, but I wanted […]
Colored Pencil Drawing of Cobie Smulders
In trying to find new and different people to draw, I thought I’d draw S.H.I.E.L.D’s own Maria Hill – AKA Cobie Smulders – but as herself. I’ve never watched How I Met Your Mother (beyond the pilot episode), but I enjoy Cobie as an actress. This photo is a little steamy […]
Stana Katic Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing
I am #sorrynotsorry about my love for drawing Stana Katic. Part of it is that I just really enjoy drawing her, and another part is that sometimes I’m just not satisfied enough with the previous drawing. But, for the most part, I just love drawing her. I became a fan […]
Updated Juliet from LOST Elizabeth Mitchell Drawing
I forget what exactly inspired me to rework/update my Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet from LOST drawing, but for a long time, I knew the drawing could be better. So, for these changes, I didn’t redraw the drawing, but took the original drawing and spent more time on adding details and […]
