View post →This drawing was made the same day as my last post. I was in a minimalist mood I guess. This is a drawing of a girl relaxing under a potted plant with camera in hand. If you’re lucky enough not to be snowed in this weekend, get out and take some pictures (or do […]
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 →Yesterday we had so much fog in our area. It was remarkable.

I always wondered what it was exactly that they were drawn to about the sculpture. who knows? Sword, anatomy, sculpture? […]

View post →I took a quick trip down to Philadelphia on Tuesday to see one of my favorite performers (Destroyer) do a solo set. I watched from the balcony and was amazed by how many lights, wires, cables, disco ball!, etc. were hanging from the ceiling in this tiny little place. Greg Betza ©2013

View post →The statue of Perseus at The Metropolitan Museum of Art is no longer on view, but I made a pretty lengthy series of drawings of people as they passed him by. I always found it very amusing to watch people in the context of Perseus; how they reacted, or didn’t react, to him […]

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. […]
