Walking through the second floor of the Met Museum in NYC I love browsing through museums, and taking emotional notes with either my brain or my pen (or, as in this case, with pencil and crayon)
View post →I had to post another drawing of these dudes. They are too cool. And such a part of summer in the East Village. That’s why I love my neighborhood – it hasn’t lost it’s personality over the years. Great stuff. Think I’ll have some fish for dinner tonight…I usually cast my line at the Associated […]

View post →If you have ever traveled along then Hudson River in New York, particularly via Metro North Railroad which rides along the river, you may have witnessed an odd looking ship that seems out of place among all the tug boats and tankers that crowd the waters. That vessel may have been the Half Moon, a […]

Every year during the summer time in NYC, the fishermen line up along the East River on New York’s lower east side. They are out here every day, looking for treasure in the rivers around the Big Apple. They do seem to catch something, and they eat it, too! Not sure how I’d feel about […]
View post →This drawing was done a little over a month ago down at the south street seaport in NYC. Now I’ve been there a million times and drawn the boats at least that many times, so on this day I looked for something different. I found this great mess of bikes. There truly is always something […]
View post →As I wait for my technologically challenged summer to come to a halt (scanner is on the fritz), I dig deeper in the archives and search for something that means as much now as it it did then. This is one of my favorite drawings from The American Museum of Natural History. This drawing, and […]

View post →They had this thing called ‘art battles’ in the park area of my apartment complex. These four guys had two hours to make a painting in front of everyone and the crowd voted for their favorite. The winner gets a thousand bucks. There was one guy doing a pop-art kind of Statue of Liberty thing, […]
View post →CPDSA. Â This couple on the right were really enjoying watching the skaters/dancers and lovin’ the music – me, too! Â Margaret
View post →It’s 5:30 am on Sunday the 19th of July 2009 and a small group of artists are lined up at the White Columns down on Horatio St. We all wait anxiously as open casting calls take place for a reality TV project starring thirteen aspiring artists. The show is being developed by Bravo which brings […]

mbedigian©2009 Over the weekend I caught up with a few friends I had met in Paris a few years back in the gorgeous, (I mean GORGEOUS) musée Rodin, a museum dedicated to the life and work of  master artist, August Rodin. Their first time in America, I was excited to see them. We met in […]
View post →I have been drawing the Second Avenue Subway construction in New York City for a couple of years now. I haven’t had the time to get to the site lately but I found two drawings that I did and scanned but forgot all about at the beginning of the year. Some days I can’t even […]
View post →I thought I’d follow up my last post with another drawing from my reportage of Times Square. I will be posting the rest of the drawings on my blog, so check them out if you have a chance. post by Greg Betza
View post →Right underneath the subway the Coquito Man yells at the top of his lungs, “COQUITO!” Kids love it, adults love it, I love it. So yes I sat down, drew Mr. Coquito under the rumbling of the subway, and then proceeded with buying myself a large cup of coquito. Eddie Peña
View post →This is another drawing of the CPDSA skaters in Central Park, making moves and having fun, as usual! Â Happy 4th of July! Margaret Hurst
View post →Despite weather calling for severe thunderstorms, my family and I ‘braved’ the conditions and set out for traffic-free Times Square. Saturday was an incredibly beautiful day, and the free tables and chairs were an added luxury. I’ve always loved drawing Times Sq. It’s a bit crazy, but there are so many points of interest that […]
