Here is my attempt to paint the subtle variations in an almost all green landscape using just brush markers. It was fun, somewhat challenging, but overall just a nice way to spend the early evening. Greg Betza ©2019

A drawing made a few years ago of the 9/11 Memorial Pear Tree that survived the attack on the World Trade Center. The Survivor Tree. People hanging ribbons on the Pear Tree in memory of those we lost on September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center. A living memorial. m hurst

The Oculus and the Survivor Tree, drawn during a recent visit to the 9/11 Memorial. The Oculus transportation hub at World Trade Center was designed by Santiago Calatrava, and to me, looks like two large protective angels wings reaching out over the site of the former World Trade Center. The survivor tree is a Callery […]

So I’ve been spending some time out west and while in Colorado I attempted to “paint”, with crayons, Pike’s Peak. It was really a great day spent with my son drawing until the sun began melting our crayons right on the top of the rocks we were drawing from. That was fine, it happens. But what […]

I spent a week in Kansas City, MO in July and made my way down to one of its famous jazz clubs, the Green Lady Lounge. On that night, performer Max Groove (not his real name ;)) performed his organ duo with a drummer (can’t remember his name :(). Great guys and great music. Greg […]

I’ve been traveling and keeping a small journal for the last month or so. Here is a drawing of a little town in Colorado called Buena Vista. It’s small but every shop either has very nice gifts and homemade items or really, really good food. There’s also rental shops for kayaks and surfboards, bikes, etc. […]

They are hard to draw because they are so fast but I have the joy and privilege of having a free day to laze around on the porch in Colorado Springs and watch so many of these beautiful creatures come to get a drink of sugar water. All day. They make a strange high pitched […]

I made this quick drawing at Balanced Rock in Colorado Springs, CO. Balanced Rock is well, a giant red sandstone formation that appears to be precariously balanced. People love to do “the pose” where they’re holding it up. It is beautiful though, wow. Greg Betza ©2019

I’ve been traveling cross country this summer and yesterday I traversed the plains of Kansas. Aside from a few cows dotting the landscape, not much to see. But there is something beautiful in the golden plains and the multiple greens of the crops. I tried to capture that here, and a few cows. Greg Betza […]

A long time ago I was advised to put a clip on whatever didn’t quite make sense at the time and save it for further review at a later date. Put it under the bed. Pulling from a small stack on my table I realize there are more choices about than seem evident these days. […]
