I made this gouache painting many years ago while visiting Ellis Island. I don’t remember if this was inspired by a single photo or the many photos of different immigrants they have there. It’s a beautiful, important place where you can learn so much about our country. Greg Betza ©2018 #ellisisland

I made this drawing the other night while watching the band Hot Snakes. They had so much energy, specifically their lead guitarist who goes by the name “Speedo”. I hope my drawing did him justice. Greg Betza 2018
