Yellow Jacket Sketch – Fast Drawing with Rain, Inspired by Iconic Scenes in Movies
By Bristol-based Artist Chris Shopland
Description:
This yellow jacket sketch is a quick, spontaneous drawing inspired by iconic movie scenes, including the famous image from IT with the paper boat. The yellow jacket has become a recognisable aesthetic, often evoking feelings of nostalgia and cinematic moments. The addition of rain in the drawing adds a dynamic element, capturing the essence of movement and atmosphere.
Created during an art trail when things were quiet, this piece reflects the simple joy of creating art in the moment. As artists, we often find ourselves with a sketchbook in hand, ready to capture whatever inspires us, easy to entertain when a world is inside your head—whether it's a photo, a scene from a film, or just the desire to express something in our own style, as well as imaginative world building. The act of drawing is a form of entertainment and self-expression that allows us to connect with our surroundings and our thoughts.

This sketch is a perfect example of the freedom that comes with being an artist—capturing fleeting moments of inspiration in a style that’s uniquely yours. Whether you're a fan of iconic film references or simply love expressive, fast-paced art, this drawing brings a touch of cinematic flair to any space. The photo was from pexels, not a movie but that is what it sparked within me.
