Keeping busy, drawing what’s around the house. Here are a few tall plants standing indoors, sharing the space as best they can. #stayhome Greg Betza ©2020

The “Q” stands for quarantine, a word that we all hear far too often these strange days. Feeling a bit stagnant and honestly a bit sad this morning I decided to just draw, to get out of this temporary funk I’m feeling. I’m happy to report I’m feeling much better as I worked to find […]

I was looking through some drawings and found this one that I drew awhile back. I was learning how to draw the model and make marks. And also, no one was within 6 feet of the model! m hurst

Spring is upon us…and I’m sure I speak for you all when I say it feels quite different this year. Instead of bursting out of our homes to enjoy the warmer weather, blossoming plants and blooming flowers, we’re shut in, afraid to breathe the fresh air, especially if anyone is within 6 feet of that […]

I had forgotten about this sketch I did for Random House a few years back. It was for the cover of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, a very thrilling assignment to receive. It was an honor to illustrate such an important piece of literature. To see the final cover click here. Greg Betza ©2020

As I club-hopped down Frenchman Street in New Orleans I stopped in a half empty club called the Blue Nile, which quickly filled up once this brass/percussion band hit the stage. I believe there were 7 musicians up there at once. Lots of energy. I was interested in the blue and yellow lights for some reason, […]

There’s always something to celebrate in New Orleans so you might as well permanently decorate your bike to be prepared for a good time. ~Despina

First drawing of the decade! I chose a darkening Texas sky. There were more colors, but I only had blue and black. Somehow that was all I needed, the mood feels just as it did. Happy New Year! Greg Betza ©2020

Having a free day today I spent some time drawing our little Christmas tree. It’s only about 3 feet tall, but it works. I hope you’re all enjoying whatever holiday you celebrate and are taking time to relax and reflect over the next few days… Greg Betza ©2019

I’m spending some time in Austin, Texas and decided to seek out some life drawing, and happily found a nice group at the Austin Visual Arts Association. A great model and talented group of artists. It was fun getting some of the rust off. Greg Betza ©2019

Holiday cards are often some of my favorite types of illustration projects to do. Thought I’d reach into the archives for today’s post, and put up a sketch I created for a client a few years ago. They went with another of my ideas, but I still like this thought of a global scene under […]

Happy Halloween! I’m not much of a Halloween person, or artist, so I thought I’d at least post a fun colorful drawing today. Have fun, be safe, don’t eat too much candy! Greg Betza ©2019

The Delicate Arch has become the unofficial symbol of Utah, it’s that beautiful orange-red rock formation on their license plate. I didn’t really know what to expect, and honestly I expected to be underwhelmed by another touristy landmark. Boy was I wrong. First, the 1.5 mile hike was intense, climbing nearly 500 feet. Out of […]
