View post →I spent Thursday at Yankee Stadium sitting close to, and drawing, outfielder Ichiro Suzuki. For those of you that don’t know, “Ichiro” is perhaps the greatest player ever to play both in Japan and the Major Leagues. And I just read yesterday that the Yankees have placed him on waivers (he is available for trade), […]

View post →I made this drawing in 2009 while on the island of Santorini. You’ll notice ship masts and buses in the background. We were all waiting for our ride off or onto the island…which, by the way, is one of the most naturally beautiful places I have ever visited. Click here for more drawings made on […]

My son’s new favorite thing. Star Wars in particular. Good thing for me is that it keeps him still for a few seconds and I can make a drawing. Greg Betza ©2014

View post →Here is a drawing I made of the Fort Duquesne Bridge while sitting on the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh has a reputation (because of the steel industry) as being very industrial and gritty, and while it is, it is also incredibly beautiful…especially if you like bridges. Pittsburgh boasts a total of 446 bridges […]
