Less time to think and only time to react. It’s great exercise for the mind and hand. These 2 thumbnails are from a recent zoom drawing […]

Happy Fourth of July. I didn’t have time today to find a more “suitable or patriotic” piece of art, so I’m hoping a drawing of a man in a cape will suffice. Enjoy the holiday fellow Americans! Greg Betza ©2019

I’m not always able to make it over to the Society of Illustrator’s Sketch Nights – but when it’s a Moulin Rouge theme, how can I resist? All of my favorite things wrapped up into one lacy French package. 🙂 You can see some more of my illustrations from the evening on my blog, HERE. […]

Headed out to the Society of Illustrators a few weeks ago with markers on my mind. Not sure why, but I did and that’s what I started working with…and really enjoyed. Here are the 2 models in their “street fashions”. Greg Betza ©2019

Was cleaning out the studio recently and came an old fashion drawing I did when I was attending Parsons School of Design. Thought it would be fun to post here. Love the 80s style! It’s always fun to look back and see the old stuff. Note the water stains from a flood a while back. […]
