I have done quite a few commissioned Scarlett/Black Widow drawings for a customer, but since I actually like drawing Scarlett, it’s not really a problem. 🙂 This was drawn freehand with colored pencils.

Freehand Graphite Drawing of Evangeline Lilly
I have to admit that one of my favorite people to draw is actress Evangeline Lilly (LOST). So sometimes, when I’m not sure what to draw and I just want the challenge of trying to capture Evie’s likeness (again), I take a stab at a new portrait of her. I […]
Black Widow Movie Colored Pencil Drawing
With a new Black Widow movie (finally) out, I decided to do a new freehand colored pencil drawing of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow. I love her in this role! Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1040952216/natasha-scarlett-johansson-in-black
Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter “Avengers Endgame” Graphite Drawing
If you’ve been following my work at all, you’ll know I’m a Captain America fan. I especially loved the Steve and Peggy love story, and really loved the happy ending their story was given in “Avengers: Endgame.” I really wanted to capture that dance they finally got to have in […]
Chadwick Boseman Colored Pencil and Graphite Commission Drawing
After the passing of Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman, I was commissioned to do a freehand graphite and colored pencil tribute to the actor and the character he’ll forever be remembered for. You’re missed, Chadwick!
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 […]
Kate Austen “LOST” Evangeline Lilly Pencil Drawing
And my introduction to Evangeline Lilly was in the show LOST – a show I didn’t become a fan of myself until first watching it in its entirety on Amazon Prime or NetFlix. I’ve since watched the whole show through a couple times, and I think the more I’ve watched […]
Colored Pencil Iron Man “Endgame” Drawing
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 and the Avengers (and it made me realize Captain America […]
Rachel Weisz Freehand Graphite Sketch
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 stressful if I struggle with getting a likeness right). This […]
Spider-Man Tom Holland Colored Pencil, Marker and Graphite Drawing
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 to do a drawing of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man with the […]
“Black Widow” Scarlett Johansson Colored Pencil Drawing
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 the colored pencil (Something I don’t always do). Etsy link […]
Winter Soldier Sebastian Stan Graphite Drawing
And here is a second Winter Soldier / Sebastian Stan portrait commission piece I did. It’s a freehand graphite drawing on Strathmore Art smooth Bristol paper. (I might as well start a business drawing Sebastian! This wouldn’t be my last commission of him in the months following, either. 🙂 ) […]
Andy Serkis Character Drawing Portrait
One actor we hoped to see at the Keystone Comic Con convention who inevitably cancelled is the ever versatile Andy Serkis — known best as Gollum from Lord of the Rings, but also as the voice and performance of Caesar from the recent Planet of the Apes trilogy and Snoke […]
Autographed Colored Pencil Drawing of Amy Acker
Before I worked on the Person of Interest drawing, I actually did a different portrait of Amy Acker. My first attempt was this one, and, while it really isn’t all that bad, I just wasn’t happy with it… which is what led me to try again. This one was colored […]
Freehand Colored Pencil Drawing of Evangeline Lilly as Wasp (Autographed!)
Another selling point for our trek to Boston was to meet actress Evangeline Lilly — who is most famous for her role as Wasp in Ant-Man and the Wasp and as Kate Austen in the show LOST. Evangeline has also carved out a career for herself as a childrens’ author, […]
Colored Pencil “Thor Ragnarok” Drawing
I love the Marvel movies, and with “Thor Ragnarok”‘s release, I felt inspired to do an all-new colored pencil work based around the film. This one was pretty fun — I wanted to try to do something a little unique by making a collage. It’s entirely freehand with colored pencil […]
Colored Pencil Drawing of Chris Pratt as Star-Lord with the Milano (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2”)
Continuing with an unofficial series of heroes with their rides, I followed Jyn with this colored pencil drawing of Chris Pratt as Star-Lord / Peter Quill from “Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2” and his spaceship, The Milano. This one was drawn entirely in colored pencil. Fun fact – I […]
Colored Pencil Drawing of Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange
Marvel’s just knocking each movie out of the park, and Benedict Cumberbatch was an inspired choice to play Doctor Strange. This is a freehand colored pencil drawing, and it was quite a challenge. I used a little bit of white paint marker to assist in the details of his magical […]
Colored Pencil Captain America Drawing (from “Civil War”)
To accompany the new Bucky drawing–and to draw a new suited up Captain America in full color–I decided to attempt a new freehand drawing. I drew it out in pencil first and then erased that and drew it in colored pencil (which is typically my process for colored pencil drawings) […]
Freehand Drawing of Paul Rudd as Ant-Man
After seeing so many inspiring works online, it’s tough to just resort to straight portraits. And after seeing Ant-Man and liking it, it’s tough to resort to a portrait of just Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang or just him suited up as Ant-Man. This one is graphite with colored pencil for […]
New Originals Up for Sale!
I added a new batch of original drawings up for sale. Once they’re gone, they’re gone! Prints are still available for them, but these originals are first-come, first-serve. Thanks for looking! Newly added: Chris Hemsworth as Thor in Thor: The Dark World Tom Hiddleston as Loki in Thor: The Dark […]
Colored Pencil Drawing of LEGO Captain America
Following LEGO Batman in colored pencil, I wanted to tackle LEGO Captain America (probably my favorite superhero). I actually almost abandoned this one early on because I wasn’t happy with certain aspects of it, but I’m mostly satisfied with the end result. Etsy link for prints: https://www.etsy.com/listing/232500799/full-color-drawing-print-of-lego-captain Etsy link for […]
Pencil Drawing of Scarlett Johansson
I gotta admit; if I’m going to be staring hours at a photograph to try to reproduce it in pencil, it’s a real nice treat for it to be a pretty face. Between the recent Evangeline, Jennifer, Stana and now Scarlett, it’s been fun to find unique photos to use […]
Pencil Portrait of Jennifer Connelly
I’ve found that sometimes you win some and you lose some. I struggled with this pencil portrait of Jennifer Connelly for too long and, sadly, I don’t think I got it quite right. Sometimes it’s the source image that’s part of the problem, and other times I think I just […]
Freehand Pencil Drawing of Evangeline Lilly
OK, so I have a soft spot for Evangeline Lilly. After drawing dudes a lot, it’s just nice to stare at a pretty face while drawing. This one was a challenge (as usual?), but I enjoyed it. Instead of turning to colored pencil or an Ebony pencil for the darkest […]
Colored Pencil Sketch of Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter in “Captain America: The First Avenger”
My third attempt at doing a full, quick sketch in one night went to Peggy Carter from Captain America: The First Avenger — a character that’s been making waves on TV in the show “Agent Carter.” This one was pretty fun, but tricky to get the likeness down quickly.
Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing of Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star Lord in “Guardians of the Galaxy”
After finishing Drax, and after having re-watched the film with some friends who hadn’t seen it yet, there was a shot of Pratt as Star-Lord in the final scene that just screamed to be drawn. So I loaded it up on my iPad, took a screenshot and used it as […]
Zoe Saldana as Gamora in “Guardians of the Galaxy” Colored Pencil and Graphite Drawing
Following Star-Lord and Rocket & Groot, I got a few requests for Gamora and decided to oblige. This is about half and half graphite and colored pencil. Etsy link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/209240844/drawing-print-of-zoe-saldana-as-gamora
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 […]
Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing of Rocket and Groot from “Guardians of the Galaxy”
After drawing Chris Pratt as Star Lord –and heeding requests from some folks– I decided to attack a Rocket and Groot drawing. I approached it with mostly graphite pencil and then added in colored pencil for some of Rocket’s fur, the sight on his gun and Groot’s moss. Etsy link […]
