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 […]

Simone Dawn De Kock Colored Pencil Drawing
This one is easily one of my favorite drawings I did in 2018. In addition to having a beautiful subject (lovely model Simone Dawn De Kock), I just found it a fun and challenging image to try to capture. Not only is she lying on a beach (in SAND, mind […]
Eva Green Colored Pencil Drawing
I definitely fell for Eva Green with her performance as Vesper in Casino Royale. Eva is among a short list of actresses I really enjoy drawing — but also find challenging in trying to properly capture them. This one was done entirely freehand with colored pencil (and maybe some marker? […]
Graphite Drawing of Zoe Saldana
In an effort to do more sketches more often of various people, a subject like the beautiful Zoe Saldana is an easy one to gravitate toward. This drawing was done freehand (like the others) with graphite pencils. Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/611765951/drawing-print-of-zoe-saldana-guardians
Colored Pencil Drawing of Kate Mara
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. 🙂 ) Etsy link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/462512528/drawing-print-of-actress-kate-mara
More Original Pieces Up for Sale
It’s time for me to part with some more of my original works. I store them in my portfolios and I realize they’re just being “wasted” hidden in between pages of other hidden works — when people can be enjoying them on their walls or wherever. The pricing depends on […]
Pencil Drawing of Yvonne Strahovski (“Chuck” / “24: Live Another Day”)
Doing just straight-up pencil drawings is kind of a palette cleanser for me. So after (or sometimes during) working on something that detail and/or color intensive, I’ll just start a drawing like this one for fun and further practice. After getting totally addicted to the show “Chuck” via NetFlix, I […]
Pencil Drawing of Audrey Hepburn in “Charade”
I’ll let you in on a little secret: I’m seldom happy with the end results of my drawings. We’ve come to hang a few of my works around the house to decorate the walls a bit, and our living room has been classic film actors for several years now. Older […]
Pencil Drawing of Evangeline Lilly
Close to finishing Optimus, I wanted to start a new drawing just for pure kicks. I tend to troll the web for inspiring photos to attempt to draw and I had this one on my iPad for months (probably when I was looking for a photo of Evangeline for the […]
Pencil and Prismacolor Hybrid Drawing of Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter in Captain America
Welp, I thought Captain America needs his Peggy, so I decided to do a graphite pencil of Hayley Atwell as Peggy from the first Cap movie and decided to color her eyes and lips, however, with Prismacolor pencils. I also tried to push my detailing a bit, spending more time […]
Pencil Drawing of Liv Tyler
After drawing Gandalf from Lord of the Rings, I wanted to do a pencil drawing of Liv Tyler as the elf Arwen — but I couldn’t find a picture I liked enough to work on. So, while looking for Arwen photos, I came across just a regular glam shot of […]
Pencil Drawing of Jaci Velasquez (Updated)
I hate that when I find an older drawing that could use some touching up, I tend to be reminded of how George Lucas has never been satisfied with his Star Wars work and continues to edit them time and time again. While no work of mine can be compared […]
