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 →Oddly enough, the one thing I dreaded about making the cross country trip in January was the possibility of missing a snow storm. I am one of the vocal few who love winter, love the snow, love the cold. Yes, I said love. Don’t curse me out. I don’t do the Calvin snow dance—at least […]
View post →A drawing of the wonderful Samir from a weekend of drawing at Dalvero. I drew Samir with a colored pencil and then decided to add some sewing thread to the drawing. I liked what happened and I think I’d like to experiment a little more with the drawing/thread medium. Thank you, Samir! Margaret Hurst
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. I’ve never been much into air & space, but when you’re in the presence of a shuttle, a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird, a Concorde, and the Enola […]

View post →I recently went to draw at the Plaza Hotel in NYC. Very beautiful area with rich history, beautiful structures and some of the best people watching. I saw a ridiculously long line for the “Sex and the City” Tour Bus. Very funny. Maybe I’ll post the drawing of that another day. This time, I’ll share […]

A drawing of Kika at the Dalvero Academy! Always amazing to draw! A beautiful bouquet of colorful flowers to draw. Also added a little bit of thread. Margaret Hurst

View post →I always love to try as many mixed media combinations that I can think of when I’m drawing from a model. Here is an ink, acrylic paint and crayon drawing. –Despina
View post →This is a holiday card I put together for a client a few years back. It was fun to mix traditional media with a digital application for this one. Hope you had a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year to you all! ©Greg Betza 2014
View post →I used to have a habit of being too early for appointments…so I would just make drawings from my car to pass the time. Here is one from 2003, NYC.
View post →Here is another pastel drawing I made while visiting Sedona with fellow 1482-er Margaret Hurst a few years ago. What a gorgeous place – the landscape is so beautiful you almost can’t believe it’s real! There are supposedly areas in Sedona called ‘vortexes’ where you can feel some kind of gravitational pull of the Earth. […]
View post →Going through some sketch books and came across a drawing of pigeons in Venice, Italy. There really were a lot of pigeons/doves. Honest. It was crazy! I loved it! Margaret Hurst
