Digitally Drawing Women of Hollywood (Stain Winston School Diary)

The summer of 2022 was great fun with CinematNIC Art, my online digital how-to art series. Bob Ross was my inspiration with the pretty little trees over by mountains. Do you remember the episode about the baby squirrel?

My self-filmed on an older iPhone model series was far from glam. The horrible lighting made me look frumpy. An episode tossed in a glitter filter.

The content of the show is the heart of the series: drawing my fav actresses of Hollywood past and present, all on the free AutoDesk Sketchbook iPad app.

You know my love of director Peter Jackson. Drawing a scene from his King Kong remake was a no brainer, with Naomi Watts as Ann Darrow. “It wasn’t the airplanes! It was beauty killed the beast.”

Charlize Theron in Atomic Blonde was a hit with web users who didn’t know the free app existed.

My episodes taught you that a quick sketch without details has the love of something filled in like above. The gift is what counts. Draw these more detailed out for friends for presents. Print out your own art for your walls.

Draw the quick style for a quick “Will you go with me to the prom?” card or truly sketching out your ideas before you take them to the next step.

The CinematNIC Art show was made possible through viewers like you! Just kidding. Through the Stan Winston School, where I started learning about digital illustrating, a necessary skill to broadening my visual creativity as a filmmaker.
