A quick drawing of someone about to cover their eyes. Looks very fearful, though that wasn’t the intent. I guess sometimes the pen captures what’s really happening regardless of what you think you see. Greg Betza ©2017

View post →For most countries the official day of resetting the annual clock is on January 1st. It’s a symbol of renewal and an opportunity to plant new seeds of thought, a new way of seeing the light in things … So in keeping with tradition I’ve taken some time this week to reflect on 2015 in […]
View post →These are some hand drawings from a little ways back. When I finished drawing them I realized that they looked like trees. They were supposed to be hands united, which could also represent trees. Trees do so much for us, so, yeah, Red Tree Hands! United! Margaret Hurst

View post →Drawing is a skill that always needs attention. Like any art form, it takes practice, practice and more practice. Below is a page of hand studies done for no other reason than for the exercise (always a great barometer to see where I’m at) – Michele
