This week I started teaching a drawing class at Amplify – a company in Brooklyn’s techiest neighborhood – Dumbo – that is working to “re-imagine education.” And as part of that overall philosophy they are introducing drawing classes, not only for their artists and designers, but for all of their employees.

View post →So my parents have retired and are moving. I’m helping to clear out the storage which consists of a lot of my old portfolio cases filled with journals and artwork from high school and college. It’s been part embarrassing and part inspiring.

View post →I find that I have learned more about design and drawing from the practice of drawing from a live model. Here is a drawing where I thought about just how much really needs to be drawn to communicate what it is and how it feels. Greg Betza ©2014

View post →On Memorial Day, people who have the day off do what they love to do in their free time- eat, drink and be with friends. Although I like to do this at times, my preferred way of relaxing is to draw from the model. Great way to spend a day. Can’t wait to do it […]
View post →You know I once had a teacher who said for each day you don’t study your craft you lose the ability to call yourself “an artist” and fall into the category of “I once was”. The Dalvero Academy is hosting a fall series of life drawing sessions. So it feels really good to say, “Here […]
