View post →Back in 2004 I was and so is this drawing! I had a period where I just drew everything. This is a drawing of Union Square in New York City. Not sure I would make this drawing the same way today, but it is fun to look back at. #NYC #reportage Greg Betza ©2015
View post →This is a drawing of the actual space shuttle Discovery. The shuttle is housed in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia.

Who knows what goes through your mind when your drawing! […]
View post →I’m a Bob Dylan fan. I think he is a genius. AND I finally had the opportunity to see him last Saturday night at the Beacon Theatre in New York City! Not the easiest place to draw as it was very DARK, but between my memory of what he looks like and the little that […]

Back in 2003-04 I spent a considerable amount of my free time walking around and drawing New York City. Here is a drawing made back in July of 2003 near the Plaza Hotel. Greg Betza ©2014

View post →Another weekend, another show, another of my favorites. This time, J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. Simply put, J is one of the most prolific songwriters and virtuoso guitarists of his generation. Last night it was just him and a guitar as he performed songs from his 30 year career at the Bowery Ballroom in New […]
