While I had drawn this image of Leia before already, a client wanted me to draw it again and merge it with a wintery Hoth battle scene. I drew it all freehand in graphite pencil with some colored pencils, […]
Empire Strikes Back
Can I just say, what a pleasure it was to actually get to meet Billy Dee Williams! It’s hard to imagine that, in one year, I met actors from my two all-time favorite movies! In April, it was meeting Ernie […]
Joining Leia and Luke in my young-and-old series is this Han Solo freehand drawing I did. I drew Han young from A New Hope in colored pencil and him older in graphite from the Force Awakens.

This is a freehand Colored Pencil and Graphite Drawing of Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi and Empire Strikes Back to go along with the recent Leia piece. And, upon its completion, I decided it was time […]
This is a freehand Colored Pencil and Graphite Drawing of Carrie Fisher as Leia in The Last Jedi and Empire Strikes Back that I did to honor our fallen princess. I wanted to merge her last appearance in Star Wars […]

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 […]
I find it difficult to part with many of my original drawings, but I realize I can’t keep them all… So I’m cleaning shop a bit. These are original, 9×12 drawings — not prints/copies — so they’re one-of-a-kind, and once […]
After working on the screenshot from Back To The Future and enjoying it so much, I decided to try my hand at another favorite movie scene. This time I took a screenshot from The Empire Strikes Back, the fifth (or […]
I’ve been on a Star Wars kick lately and I realized, while I’ve drawn Luke and Han a couple times, I’ve never drawn Leia. So this was an attempt to draw Leia but not using one of the typical iconic […]
After I finished the Mac drawing, I wasn’t sure what to work on next. I came to decide that I’ve never drawn Luke Skywalker and that needed to be remedied. This is a drawing of a promo shot of Luke […]
