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 are 2 women I saw on the street. I enjoy trying to capture a person in a simple ink wash. It forces you to focus on the shape and body language, not the details. Greg Betza ©2013
View post →I won’t call the weekend in Chicago an escape, but to clear the entire agenda and only fill it with drawing is something that even on the best days in New York seems near impossible. On our way back we turned south and made a detour in Pittsburgh for the night. As we packed up […]

View post →For those who don’t know, I grew up in a print shop. I have never not known printing as a family business and I am sure it has fed every visual pursuit that I have had as well as shaped every interest and business decision as a freelancer. Most people know offset printing and fine […]

View post →I know most of us would probably say that our days do not go as planned. Or maybe it is just me. If I accomplish a fraction of what I set out to on most days, I would usually be pretty happy. Today in the midst of assignments and deadlines, the projects took a back […]

View post →A few years back, I had the opportunity to get up close and personal with a couple of (very large) horses. I mainly did a lot of shooting that day as their handler had them trotting, galloping and doing all kinds of things. But as I was looking through the photos recently, I found a […]

View post →I’ve always wanted to be a soldier. It’s been a desire of mine since I was a boy. I can’t say I can pin point why, but I know I would have made a great soldier. I think it takes a special heart to become a soldier. I thank every military man and woman that […]
