My introduction to Jaimie Alexander was in her work as Lady Sif in the Marvel movie Thor (and I’m thrilled to hear she’ll be back in the next Thor movie!). I then became more of a fan after seeing […]

As a fan of MacGyver since probably my pre-teens, I jumped at the chance to meet Richard Dean Anderson at a convention in November, 2019. After a weird fire drill almost squashed our attempts to meet him, RDA graciously hung […]
What Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr. began with the first Iron Man film not only made me a fan of the character that I otherwise had never heard of, but had made me a fan of Marvel […]
My dad has been a lifelong fan of Godzilla – a love he has even passed on to my son. For his birthday, I drew him this freehand colored pencil drawing of Godzilla from the King of the Monsters movie […]
I actually first discovered Hilarie Burton through her work on White Collar, and I loved her contributions to that show. And when I got into the short-lived but fantastic Lethal Weapon TV show, I loved seeing her appear there as […]
I’m sure I’ve said this before, but oftentimes when I’m between drawings – and often especially between grueling projects – I tend to take on less stressful projects just to keep practicing my craft (Of course, they can sometimes become […]
One comedic duo I’ve loved since childhood was easily Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. I found a DVD set of a good chunk of their films and decided to binge-watch most of them. Out of that binging, I decided […]
Here’s a freehand colored pencil and marker drawing I did of Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn in Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. I love the LOTR movies but had never done a real LOTR themed drawing (I did […]
As a commissioned project, I did a freehand Sebastian Stan graphite drawing with a hint of colored pencil for his lips and eyes. I was on the fence about the color for the lips, but the client loved it, so […]
I can’t remember the last time I got as excited during a moment in a movie than when Thor’s hammer, mjolnir, flew into Captain America’s hand during the epic climactic battle in Avengers: Endgame. Such an incredible moment! I knew […]
By far one of the best things about Parks and Recreation is Nick Offerman’s Ron Swanson. This pencil portrait was my attempt at capturing Ron’s confrontational mug. 🙂 (Freehand graphite drawing) Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/print-of-graphite-pencil-drawing-of-ron-swanson-nick-offerman-from-parks-and-recreation-85-x-11 Purchase link for the […]
Marisa Miller is probably most known for being a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model. I wanted to draw her, but it was tough to find a source photo that wasn’t TOO provocative. Ha! But still, this one was a bit […]
Bridget Regan caught my attention in the show White Collar, so I’ve drawn her a couple times. I drew this one freehand with graphite pencils.

I loved Pom Klementieff in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Avengers: Infinity War, and I’m really excited to see her in the upcoming Mission: Impossible sequels. I picked this image to draw because I was intrigued by the […]
This one runs the full spectrum of media creation for me. For several years now, I’ve been drawing album cover art for free MP3 compilations my site JFH has been compiling and giving away. For this one, I wanted […]
Although I’m sure she’s most known for more successful ventures, I really liked Annabelle Wallis in the Tom Cruise-led Mummy reboot. I drew this freehand using graphite pencils. (Prints and the original drawing are available upon request)
I think my first exposure to Emmy Rossum was Poseidon – even though she’s far more known for her show Shameless, which I’ve never seen an episode of. I believe this was one of those drawings that I took forever […]
Although it seemed like a crime to do a black and white drawing of someone with such lovely red hair, a graphite drawing was what felt right at the time for this freehand drawing of Alicia Witt. 🙂 (Prints […]
From Catwoman to a witch in Stardust, Michelle Pfeiffer is a celebrated actress who has done a wide range of roles through the years. I had been trying to broaden my variety of people I was drawing and thought […]
I’ve seen Jewel in a few shows, but she’s probably most known for her work in Firefly and the movie Serenity. I took a stab at a freehand graphite drawing of her here. I also added just a hint of […]
At first, after Avengers: Age of Ultron, I wasn’t super crazy about Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda / Scarlet Witch character, but she’s grown on me a lot with the following films she appeared in. (And I’m definitely looking forward to that […]
Actress / model Olga Kurylenko isn’t just a sweet person, but a great actress — I loved her in Quantum of Solace and Oblivion. She’s frequently shared my drawings I’ve done of her on her social channels, which I will […]
Stana Katic is another person I just love to draw – but I still find her a challenge to get just right. I just love her as Kate Beckett in the show “Castle”! Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/drawing-print-of-stana-katic-who-plays-kate-beckett-on-tvs-castle-also-absentia
I loved Abigail Spencer in the short-lived TV show “Timeless” and have found she’s fun, yet difficult, to draw. I drew this freehand in graphite pencil and it remains my favorite drawing I’ve attempted of her thus far. It’s a […]
I still think it’s hard to believe Karen Gillan is under all that make up as Nebula in the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy movies. Granted, Doctor Who fans know her as Amy Pond (I’ve never watched the show), […]
Every once in a while, you get a very specific commission project. This one was done for a Ghostbusters fan who wanted a collage of The Real Ghostbusters characters in a very particular way. I drew in a little […]
What 80’s and 90’s movie fan didn’t like Meg Ryan? This was a fun freehand graphite drawing to do of Meg (as Meg and not one of her characters) 🙂 Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/drawing-print-of-actress-meg-ryan
Heidi Klum is a face everyone has probable seen somewhere at some point in their life. 🙂 I hoped to do her justice and drew this freehand graphite drawing in 2019. Purchase link for prints: https://johndibiaseart.com/drawing-print-of-heidi-klum Purchase link for the […]
With the release of Avengers: Endgame, I thought it’d be fitting to do a new, full color “Black Widow” Scarlett Johansson colored pencil drawing. I drew this one entirely freehand (as usual) and used some marker as a base for […]
Speaking of different poses that stand out, I loved the source photo I used of actress Zoe Saldana for this drawing. It’s unique and showcases her beauty! I drew this freehand with colored pencils (and I think some markers as […]
