I was super thrilled to see the original Ghostbusters return in 2020/2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife. I did several drawings based on characters and scenes from the movie, and wanted to do one of older Peter Venkman. A good portrait image of him was hard to come by due to their limited screentime, […]

Ray, Peter and Winston from Ghostbusters Afterlife Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing
Of course, with the reveal that the original Ghostbusters trio returned for the film’s finale… I also knew I wanted to draw these guys together. Some are upset I didn’t include Egon, too, but this shot in the film, with their expressions, didn’t include Egon. It wasn’t until the camera […]
Ghostbusters / Real Ghostbusters Art Book Submission Mash-Up Freehand Drawing
In March, 2019, I worked on an exclusive original drawing for an upcoming Ghostbusters-themed art book. It was centered on the original team, which, as many of you know, has long been my favorite movie. I jumped at the chance to do this project. I worked pretty intensely on a […]
“Ghostbusters II” Peter, Ray, Egon Freehand Graphite Drawing
I hate not finishing something I start. I started this drawing in early 2016 and just really struggled with making it come together. I eventually set it aside until the summer of 2017 when I decided to work on it some more. Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/peter-egon-and-ray-ghostbusters-ii-drawing-print
Ghostbusters Graphite and Colored Pencil Commissioned Freehand Drawing
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 of all four of the only Ghostbusters for me. 🙂 […]
Bill Murray as Peter Venkman in “Ghostbusters” Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing
Even though Hollywood has made a parody of the original “Ghostbusters” film with a reboot (which I refuse to see), the 1984 film is still my all-time favorite film. And it’s just really fun to draw these guys. I love this crazy image of Bill yelling in the Sedgewick hotel […]
Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd in “Ghostbusters II” Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing
I did a drawing of these two a few years ago from the first movie, just sitting on steps chatting between takes. I saw this image and loved how it was kind of a sequel to it, which was from the sequel. And I thought it’d be fun to do […]
Ghostbusters “Ready to Believe You” Freehand Colored Pencil and Graphite Drawing
As I continue to experiment with colored pencil, I decided to try out the original GB’s in their blue labcoats for this portrait of all three guys. It was certainly a challenge for me, but a fun one to do nonetheless. Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/peter-egon-and-ray-ready-to-believe-you-ghostbusters-drawing-print
Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson in “Lost in Translation” Freehand Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing
I loved the subtle relationship between Bob and Charlotte in “Lost in Translation.” This one was challenging (especially Scarlett’s tilted head), but fun to do – especially when adding color in with regular graphite pencil.

Bill Murray as Peter Venkman in Ghostbusters with Animated RGB Peter Freehand Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing
Like Egon before him, this one proved to be a huge struggle for me. First of all, I wanted a different-than-usual pose of Bill as Peter, and I wanted animated Peter to match the character well. I was drawn to the portraitesque post of Bill during Peter’s first encounter with […]
Bill Murray and Sigourney Weaver in “Ghostbusters” Freehand Graphite Pencil Portrait Drawing
Exhibit A. (See previous post about Audrey Hepburn) This was a challenge for sure. I really enjoy doing Ghostbusters themed pieces and I was surprised, while looking for inspiring images online, to have never seen the source photo for this drawing before. I found it especially challenging–since I draw entirely […]
Bill Murray as Peter Venkman in Ghostbusters Freehand Graphite Pencil Drawing
I finally bit the bullet and attempted this screenshot from the beginning of the film. I’ve been wanting to draw it for years actually. I worked on this from November 26 thru December 3, 2013. Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/peter-venkman-ghostbusters-bill-murray-drawing-print-b
Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd from Ghostbusters Freehand Graphite and Colored Pencil Portrait Drawing
I loved the camaraderie and “broseph”-ness of this photo. I believe it was taken while the guys where having a smoke break during the filming of Ghostbusters. This was a big challenge for me because, for the life of me, I could NOT reproduce the face of Bill Murray in […]
Bill Murray as Peter Venkman in Ghostbusters Freehand Graphite Pencil Portrait Drawing
Ghostbusters has been and probably always will be my favorite all-time movie. As such, I just really enjoy trying to make new artwork themed around these characters and actors. I found a black and white photo of Bill Murray posing (or candid?) on set and I just love how natural […]
Bill Murray “Peter Venkman” Ghostbusters Freehand Graphite Pencil Portrait Drawing
I believe this drawing was done last fall sometime, but it was a fun project. Aside from this film remaining at the top of my list of favorites, it was fun to experiment with a different size source photo… and then to decide whether or not I should add in […]
Bill Murray as Peter Venkman Freehand Graphite Pencil Drawing
This drawing has been a long time coming. Back when I had done the drawing of Ray from “Ghostbusters,” I had wanted to also do this scene from the film. It’s when Bill Murray as Peter Venkman gets attacked by the ghost of Slimer. Iconic! I finally decided it was […]
