Kika was looking positively operatic in this beautiful costume at our studio yesterday. Spent a blissful four days doing a little teaching and a little drawing during our Dalvero Academy Advanced Drawing and Painting workshop in Brooklyn. Sigh… Now, back to reality… do we have to? posted by Veronica (More drawings will be posted on […]
View post →Yesterday we had so much fog in our area. It was remarkable. We couldn’t see the houses down the street, driving was a scary task and parks became a horror movie director’s dream come true. My family and I took a walk through one of our neighborhood parks to take advantage of this rare sight […]

View post →Here is another watercolor study I did last year at the Urban Sketchers Symposium in Santo Domingo. With temperatures in the single digits in New York City today, it’s hard for me to imagine that I was ever in a climate this warm. Let me try though, it might cheer me up!! 🙂 I hear […]
View post →I illustrated a few ANANSI Stories a while back. Â An example of one of the illustrations is in the One Watercolor A Day book. For the title of the book I made some watercolor letters. It seemed to fit in well with the rest of the stories and the illustrations and I enjoy making patterns. […]

View post →According to the Chinese astrology calendar 2014 is the year of the horse. That’s my year. So I guess that means you can work out how old I am. Or at least get within a 12 year range anyway. Above is a watercolor and crayon drawing of a magical carousel horse. Have a great year […]
View post →I found yet another of these small watercolor paintings of what could be a flower or a plant. I know I wrote it down somewhere, but trying to find that note in my studio is quite the impossible task! ©Greg Betza 2013
View post →After Jesus was born, Wise Men came to look for Him, probably from an area which is now in either Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia or the Yemen. Although they are often called the ‘Three Kings’, the Bible does not say how many there were, or that they were kings. One theory is that they might […]

View post →This flowery object caught my eye because of it’s intense reds and yellows. I call it flowery because I can’t recall if it was flower, a plant or just some leaves. Enjoy your weekend. © Greg Betza 2013
View post →Every year a few days before Christmas since my nephew was 3 years old we’ve been making cookies for Santa. The best part is the time together and often how unpredictable the cookies turn out. So this year in honor of his uncle (a.k.a. my husband, a 5th degree black belt in karate) Jayden found […]

View post →A similar, but different picture, of the canal watercolor in our One Watercolor A Day book, from Venice, Italy. Venice is by far one of the most beautiful cities I’ve seen and drawn. I could look at and draw and paint gondoliers, gondolas and canals forever and love every minute of it! Va bene! Margaret […]
