Returning to my roots.  I grew up reading and drawing comics.  Here is a glimpse of a project I’m working on. Eddie Peña
View post →A hand of Rodin, at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. I would give anything to have watched Rodin draw and sculpt. Every drawing, every sculpture feels alive and ready to walk away, or sit, or make love, or roll up into a ball, or crawl. It doesn’t matter. It’s alive, and I feel the energy. […]

View post →Here are 2 women I saw on the street. I enjoy trying to capture a person in a simple ink wash. It forces you to focus on the shape and body language, not the details. Greg Betza ©2013

View post →I made this drawing about a year ago down at the World Trade Center. Families performed a brief ceremony at the World Trade Center by tying yellow ribbons on the Callery Pear tree that had survived the devastation of the 9/11 tragedy twelve years ago. It was a memorable and moving ceremony. It was wonderful […]
