The Art of John DiBiase

How has it been 20 years since Casino Royale??? It’s still one of my top movies. Here’s a throwback to several years ago when I did this freehand graphite drawing of @caterina_murino_official ☺️ Where are my other Casino Royale fans at?? #caterinamurino #casinoroyale #jamesbond #graphitedrawing #portraitdrawing June 15, 2026 at 12:49PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DZnSOLzkWlD/

Just finished this brand new freehand colored pencil drawing of the lovely @evagreenweb - this was one I’ve kept as something I wanted to attempt for a while. I love the way her red jacket just beams with vibrancy. I wanted to try to capture it. Hope you guys like it! The original drawing and prints are in my shop now. #evagreen #coloredpencil #vibrance #red #artofinstagram June 13, 2026 at 03:18PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DZiZqs0mopo/

Here’s going waaaaaaaaay back! An early freehand graphite pencil portrait drawing I did for my then-new-girlfriend @amydibiasephoto. Sadly, I was only thinking “Hey, SHE likes Titanic!” And not “this would be a super sad drawing!” 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ oh well. 🤷🏻‍♂️She still married me 5 years later. 😆 happy belated birthday hon!

Different setting for drawing today. Couldn’t figure out what to draw last night and landed on Kate and Jack from LOST. - I’ve never drawn them together. Amy (whose birthday it is today! Happy birthday hon!) and I just restarted the series again so I figured a new LOST piece was in order. ☺️ Anyway… long ways to go with this one still… #lost #evangelinelilly #matthewfox #artistsofig #fanart June 11, 2026 at 12:10PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DZc6PNiOWT-/

Brand new freehand graphite drawing of @adriaarjona just finished! This was another one completed on vellum surface paper. I really enjoyed coming back to vellum, but I think I’m ready to go back to smooth paper for a spell. 😆 #adriaarjona #starwarsandor #graphitepencil #quietbeauty #melancholy June 5, 2026 at 03:08PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DZNyQ5qmjdN/

It’s been a minute since I shared this one. I always liked how this one turned out, too. I drew @rashidajones freehand in graphite and did the little heart lollipop in colored pencil. #rashidajones #parksandrec #annperkins #theoffice #artwork June 4, 2026 at 01:09PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DZK_ausuvT3/

Finished a brand new freehand Ana de Armas graphite drawing. It’s true, I’ve drawn her a lot, but some nights I just want to start something new and her images can just be so striking. Anyway, I figured I’d try a vellum surface again with this one (much less smooth) and I actually had fun with it. Hope you like it! #anadearmas #graphitedrawing #artwork #portrait #artist May 29, 2026 at 12:10PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DY7cTPpjmiB/

As I finish up a new piece, here’s a throwback to my freehand graphite draining of @reesewitherspoon ☺️ this was a fun one! #reesewitherspoon #graphitedrawing #graphite #portrait #cute May 28, 2026 at 12:35PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DY458QjAGa5/

Here’s a throwback to quite a few years ago after I decided to get back into drawing regularly. This one is a mix of graphite and colored pencil, and I believe it’s on Bristol vellum instead of smooth. (And it was drawn freehand like all my other drawings). (Prints and the original drawing are both available ☺️) #lukeskywalker #starwars #markhamill #empirestrikesback #starwarsart May 26, 2026 at 12:49PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYzxx_jxNXJ/

Decided to try a vellum surface again (instead of smooth) and kinda liking it. Not sure I’ll return fully to vellum, but it’s been a while since I enjoyed using it. #vellum #graphitedrawing #anadearmas #artwork #pencils May 25, 2026 at 12:53PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYxNyWRR70E/

With the new Mando movie out, I thought I’d share a few licensed @topps sketch cards I did a few years back that are Grogu and Mando specific :) #themandalorianfanart #starwars #themandalorian #grogu #topps May 23, 2026 at 02:50PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYsRzVqkV0Q/

Proud dad moment. 🥰 loved seeing my boy crush it as the lead in his school play tonight. Proud of you, son! 🫶 May 22, 2026 at 09:27PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYqaVrzty5s/

Thought it’d be fitting to repost my freehand colored pencil drawing of “The Child” from several years ago - before we knew him by his name, Grogu. 🥰 The movie was a lot of fun! Basically a 4th season condensed into 2 hours. 😆 looking forward to seeing it again. #themandalorianandgrogu #grogu #themandalorian #coloredpencil #starwarsart May 22, 2026 at 10:35AM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYpPg7but0v/

So stoked to see @themandalorian & Grogu tonight! Who else is going? And I just finished rewatching the series again. Here’s a repost of my freehand colored pencil and marker drawing from a season 2 scene. #starwars #themandalorianandgrogu #themandalorian #grogu #artoftheday May 21, 2026 at 12:10PM via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/DYm17qvjuvn/
