Inspired by the french impressionists, another drawing on location at St.Patrick Cathedral done on the same day as last week’s…only this time, in full color. May this week be just as peaceful and productive, only more colorful .– Michele

View post →This little lady is one of the fairies from A Midsummer’s Night Dream, crouching quietly in the leaves and flowers but buzzing  and glowing with impish energy! Life is but a dream! Again, cheers William Shakespeare! Margaret Hurst

View post →Veronica’s drawing of Belvedere Castle “beautiful view” in Central Park this past Sunday reminded me of a drawing I did a year or two back of St.Patrick’s Cathedral in all it’s “Gothic ecclesiastical way” I thought would be fun to share with you this week. May yours be peaceful and productive .– Michele
View post →One of many thumbnails drawn for Shakespeare’s, Midsummer’s Night Dream, of Titania. I believe this particular work of Shakespeare is my favorite. I love the characters, the story , the fantasy and all the possibilities that lay inside this beautiful work of literature/art. How many dreams have I had that feel as real as this play? […]

View post →DID YOU KNOW?….nicknamed “La dame de fer” (the iron lady) when built for the 1889 Exposition Universelle (World Fair), the Tour Eiffel faced massive opposition from Paris’ artistic and literary elite. The ‘metal asparagus’, as some Parisians snidely called it, was almost torn down in 1909 but was spared because it proved an ideal platform […]

View post →Another drawing/watercolor of two Japanese ladies inspired by the Japanese Pavilion at Epcot. They share one umbrella. I truly love the patterns and patterning that you find in Japan: water, nature, fabric, everything! So beautiful! Margaret Hurst
View post →This is the drawing I made thinking about the Luxemburg Gardens. My mother always talks about this place when the topic of Paris comes up because she spent the day there by herself while I was in school. So in a way, I drew HER favorite memory this time. ~Despina
View post →I’m sad to see summer go, but I really enjoyed the time and did a few drawings I’m really happy with. What more can I ask for. © Greg Betza 2012
View post →Last weeks Japanese Lady was painted/drawn and then filtered. This week’s three ladies are drawn, pen and ink, and definitely not filtered! These ladies were also inspired by the Japanese Pavilion at Epcot! Really love that pavilion! Margaret Hurst
View post →As I continued my walk past the winery through Montmartre (in my memory) I found and drew some steps. I remember walking uphill, the Fall leaves and how I wondered where those steps led to. ~Despina

View post →Funny that last weeks post was titled “Till we meet again”. For those of you that saw the post, it was a simple reflection on the season change. As I was beginning to put together this morning’s post the title seemed even more appropriate than it did then. There are certain dates in ones life […]
View post →When at Epcot drawing one day I went to Japan, the pavilion, not the real deal! I love that pavilion. Some Japanese ladies came out into the open area in front in their kimonos and with their beautiful hairdos and makeup. This is one of those ladies. She has been put through a few filters… […]
View post →Another drawing from my little book of memories. I made this drawing thinking of a rainy day in Montmartre when I peered through the fence on the perimeter of the last winery in Paris. It rained more than it didn’t that fall, and I found I preferred it that way. ~Despina
