A Response to a Terrible Tragedy In response to the recent 7.8 earthquake that struck Nepal, the illustrators of Studio 1482 have created art to raise money on behalf of the victims. The death toll is now at 4,000 people, and thousands have […]
View post →A few weeks ago I went with Veronica Lawlor and Julia Sverchuk to the Society of Illustrators to draw some incredible models. Great night! As I was drawing the models I was feeling the vibe from the artists across from me. I couldn’t resist, so I drew them too! So much fun! Intense! Margaret Hurst

View post →Another drawing from the Synaesthesia Social workshop taught by Veronica Lawlor and hosted by Ted Michalowski. These are the hands of Jason Smeltzer and the Theremin Box. I found his playing to be omnipotent; the floating musical hands of Oz! Again, an incredible performance by all the musicians! Had fun drawing next to Julia Sverchuk! […]

View post →In the midst of the sun drenched background, as the proper season was finally taking over, the setting was highlighted with the most welcome sign of new life, buds on every tree short or tall. A short lived sweet spot between the silhouette of the forgotten winter and the coming lush green shade.—Dominick

View post →I went to a club with Ronnie and Julia in the city where we were also joined by Mary Ann. These musicians were incredible, as well as the singer, hiding between two of the musicians in the drawing! I think music and drawing make an incredible couple! Margaret Hurst

It’s not quite lazy afternoon temperatures around me just yet, but I have been dreaming of sitting under a tree and drawing. I hear the weather takes a turn tomorrow. I’ll hopefully find a tree to lounge beneath.—Dominick

View post →Â A tryptic of the model Kika in one of her fantastic, fancy, frilly gowns! Had a great time drawing the beautiful black shape of the gown. Going a little crazy abstract with it! A joy! Margaret Hurst
View post →Here is another ink drawing of some plants and flowery-things hanging over a pond. I posted a few others in this series here and here. Happy Monday. Greg Betza ©2015
View post →You would think a new schedule would keep me on my toes. While it is still Saturday, this is far from a Saturday post. Intentions, intentions, intentions…always good intentions. Saint Bernard, Virgil, and Milton would have something to say about it right now. Either way, spring was certainly on my mind today and though still cold […]
View post →Took a trip to Scranton with Julia Sverchuk and Veronica Lawlor because Veronica, Ronnie, was conducting a drawing workshop for Synaesthesia Social hosted by Ted Michalowski. These musicians were incredible, and incredibly in tuned with each other! Jamie Orfanella played the didgeridoo. I have included the other musicians in the drawing with their hands: Tyler […]
