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 […]

Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey in “Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind” Pencil Drawing
Whew! This was a project. I started drawing this particular one on June 23, 2006. I worked on it a bit every few nights (I took progress shots with my cell phone camera. I may try to get those up on here sometime), but ultimately lost the drive and […]
Dan Aykroyd as Ray Stantz Pencil Drawing
“Venkman! Venkmaaaaan!” This portrait of Dan Akroyd from his role as Ray Stanz in Ghostbusters marked my return to portraits in 2004. It’s the first finished drawing I started probably since the Jim Caviezel sketch. While some drawings rested unfinished in a pad somewhere (including Harpo Marx, which thankfully I […]
Jim Carrey as ‘The Grinch’ (Colored Pencil)
I started this colored pencil drawing of Jim Carrey as The Grinch (2000) during my last semester of college at Northampton Community College in 2000. I remember often just sitting in the school’s cafeteria working on it. I found it a challenge to try to capture the color of the […]
Mark Ruffalo and Reese Witherspoon “Just Like Heaven” Pencil Drawing
For Christmas, 2004, I drew that picture from “Serendipity” for my wife Amy as one of her gifts. I was honestly shocked at how much she loved it. When I asked her why she liked that picture over others I’d done for her in the past, it was because I’d […]
Kate Winslet and Lloyd Pencil Drawing
This used to be one of my all-time favorite portrait drawings — mainly because it’s something different than anything I’d done before and I liked the outcome (which is rare). I just love the fact that Lloyd is just hanging out in the same “world” as us. By the way, […]
Leonardo DiCaprio Pencil Drawing
There were many reasons, originally, for a second Leonardo DiCaprio drawing. Although I don’t care for him much now, at the time, it sounded great for a… “sequel.” The first Leo drawing, the one I did for my cousin, was distributed to probably over 100 people and further. However, when […]
Kate Beckinsale and John Cusack (Serendipity) Pencil Drawing
This shot is a scene from the 2001 film Serendipity in which Kate Beckinsale’s character (Sara) had been ice skating with John Cusack’s character (Jonathan) and when they both fall, they retreat to a park bench. As a result of the fall, Sara acquires a scrape on her arm which […]
Tommy Lee Jones Pencil Drawing
This picture of Tommy Lee Jones originated in my “infamous” sketch book which became home to all of my high school portrait drawings. This one was made using only pencil, however, I used different shades, of course. But since Tommy Lee Jones has been one of my favorite actors for […]
Jackie Chan Pencil Drawing
After movies like Rush Hour and Shanghai Noon, Jackie Chan secured himself as one of my favorite actors. I’ve always liked his characters because he manages to be funny and amaze with his martial arts abilities. This drawing began as a doodle during my Contemporary Biology class in the Fall […]
Jim Caviezel Pencil Drawing
This sketch was my first portrait of 2002 and broke an almost year-long hiatus from drawing. I had done other drawings that were just basically doodles and such since then, but this was the first real detail-oriented sketch in a long time. Jim Caviezel is a fantastic actor and an […]
Leonardo DiCaprio Charcoal Drawing
I drew this picture for my 16-year-old cousin Laura in January/early February ’98, and gave it to her soon after I finished. She had begged me to draw Leo for her for a long time and in the midst of all the hype with Titanic and her persistence, I caved […]
