I went on a nature walk today. Everything slowed down for just a little while. We put too much stress on big accomplishments—whatever that means anymore—and not enough on smaller moments. How would we get through our day without them. Without someone by our side to share them with. A neighbor, a friend, a pet, […]

The years pass fast. Faster than I realize most days. Another has come and gone and come again the one that follows. I no longer look down but my gaze is met right before me. I catch what I can and plant what little seeds I can for the future.—Dominick

As I began the quick little portrait I was asked to “get the background too!” I guess she didn’t like the first few.—Dominick

It was either that or “I Wear My Sunglasses at Night” which I figured was too long of a post title. The day rolled by rather quickly, as the past few weeks have. I’ve been looking through some recent drawings, trying to figure out where they fit in the arsenal. Not quite sure just yet […]

Sometimes something positive comes from something negative. Along with everyone else, artists are also unable to get together…and yes, artists do get together quite often for various reasons, and one of them is to draw from the figure. Live figure drawing had been all but erased from the planet until some very industrious people decided […]

Somehow even with the extra day February is all but a memory. Aside for the lack of snow, the year has started off on the right foot or should I say opposite hand, and I have been drawing and thinking, thinking and drawing, whenever I can. —Dominick

I did this illustration for a yearly encounter of waiting for the first snow. While it has snowed a few times, mostly before the winter began, I am still waiting for the blizzard, regardless of what that old groundhog says.—Dominick

Been drawing since the new year, and working on various projects. More to share as the days come but for now another drawing from last week.—Dominick

There is a one line between good intentions and the path to hell. I don’t do resolutions. Not exactly sure why or when that happened but I just don’t turn that way at the dawn o the new year. I do however set a course or all things that bring a little more fulfillment. Happy […]

A figure drawing made at the Society of Illustrators a few years ago. I don’t remember the theme of the night, but from what I can see in this drawing it feels pretty dramatic! Greg Betza ©2019

Drawing from a while back at the Society.—Dominick

I lie, it was a big drawing. One that I needed to scan in several parts. Wish I had brought a smaller pad. Who knew that could really be a thing.—Dominick

A little play on words, pictures, and model. Specksthealmighty1 at Society of Illustrators a few weeks back. Always a blast to draw.—Dominick

Always a good time to draw Specks The Almighty at the Society of Illustrators—Dominick

A little late but didn’t want to miss another week. In the midst of a busy work schedule I had a moment to run over to the Society of Illustrators to draw. Forgot it was burlesque night until I arrived. Fun Coney Island mermaid meets Disney’s Under the Sea creations.—Dominick

Found an older drawing in the flat files and took a liking to it. Trying to remember who, what, where, or when it was done.—Dominick

Late as always, but this was sitting in my scanner so I figured I would put it up.—Dominick
