There is always an individual who stands out, in oh so many ways! Another lovely lady at the Met waiting to get a drink and a little something to nosh on! Margaret Hurst
View post →I’m out in San Diego and will be heading to the San Diego zoo this week so I thought I’d post a drawing made at a zoo (the bronx zoo) of zebras in fall. ©Greg Betza 2014
View post →Many, (many) moons ago I was studying with my mentor in Disney World’s Hollywood Studios (for those who remember, I’ll gladly refer to it as MGM Studios). I found myself at a crossroads with my drawing so he instructed me to “GO BIG!” What exactly did going “BIG” mean? Well, it meant I wasn’t allowed […]
View post →The trifecta at the Met. This was a very avid conversation! I was not close enough to hear the conversation, but the body language was pretty vivid! Very fun to watch and draw! Margaret Hurst
View post →I stopped trying to hide the fact that I am drawing. I’ve been doing it for years now on my routine trips that I feel like I should put out a cup. Or at least wear a sign with this blog name on it. Sometimes I’ll get engaged in some discussion when I get off […]
View post →Or is it spelled mangoes? Never sure. All I know is, a few years back when I visited St. Thomas with Margaret, her brother’s house had a mango tree behind it. Every morning, we would take our coffee out on to the porch and pull a mango off the tree for breakfast. So heavenly. It’s […]

View post →This past Saturday morning, despite the FREEZING weather, I decided to go over to Main Street in Flushing, Queens, and draw the lunar new year parade. There were two distinct sections to the parade: one was Chinese and the other was Korean. It was so interesting to see the differences, graphically, between the two cultures. […]
View post →There are all kinds of people who go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This is a very informal couple sitting in a very formal setting. This drawing was drawn at the end of the hall to the left of the museum entrance when it used to be a restaurant. I liked it then. You […]
View post →Can’t help but miss everything about this town. The streets, the food, the people (like this fellow passenger on the Lexington line), there is no place like New York and no place like the Upper East Side. —Dominick
View post →A drawing with pen and ink and watercolour of the bow of the Intrepid at the entrance to The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. A very cool NYC museum to visit! Margaret Hurst
View post →I never get tired of looking at the Guggenheim Museum. What a beautiful building. It was a bit cold when I drew this, but sunny! Polar vortex, polar schmortex. posted by Veronica
View post →Â A drawing/painting of the model, Samir. Great model! Â Watercolor, pastel, charcoal and coffee! Yay! Love drawing the model! Margaret Hurst
View post →Here is a drawing I made from my apartment window a day after a blizzard in 2003. It looks similar to the view I’ve had outside my window for the last 2 weeks! Greg Betza ©2014
View post →Drawing of my morning commute in NYC! Pencil on paper. Eddie Peña
View post →This is a thumbnail for a drawing called “Taste of Joy”, part of a drawing series I created called, “Sensations.” I did these drawings in response to Paul Ryan’s Cybernetics class, while studying for my masters degree in Media Arts at the New School. After I received my degree, I had the good fortune to […]
View post →Another drawing from the Advanced Drawing class! Â Miss it… No coffee this time! Margaret Hurst
View post →Every so often there’s a drawing that pushes outside of it’s boundary. You can start off with intentions of a vertical piece and the conversation suddenly begins to stretch outside of the box. This applies as much to life as it does an exercise in drawing. Above are two drawings that married each other simply […]
View post →Kika was looking positively operatic in this beautiful costume at our studio yesterday. Spent a blissful four days doing a little teaching and a little drawing during our Dalvero Academy Advanced Drawing and Painting workshop in Brooklyn. Sigh… Now, back to reality… do we have to? posted by Veronica (More drawings will be posted on […]
