Another watercolor/drawing of Titania from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer’s Night Dream. Â Apparently the play has been on my mind quite a bit these last few weeks! Perhaps is because the summer days have been ending and the fall days beginning. I do love fall, but there is something about the warm, full summer days that I […]

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 →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 →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 →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 →Ronnie and Kika and I were talking about the drawings we have made of her, Kika, over these many years! Kika was modeling in class the other day in her Kika the Nun outfit. It is without a doubt my favorite piece of clothing to draw! And, of course, Kika is a faboulous model who […]
View post →Along with my fellow Studio 1482 members, Veronica, Margaret, and Despina, I too spent the day at the High Line with the French illustrator and Urban Sketcher, Lapin. Here is a drawing of him drawing. I was sitting on top of a bench slightly above him. Greg Betza ©2012
View post →A small drawing I had done on location while watching this adorable kid eagerly wait (with ohhhh…such anticipation!) for the Electric Light Parade to arrive down Main Street. Walt Disney once said, “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”  Amen to […]
View post →Okay, so the mystery guest from last week is Greg Betza, a fellow studio 1482 member, and an urban sketcher! I loved the line up: left to right, Lapin, Jason and Greg! Margaret Hurst

View post →On the heels of Despina’s post from yesterday, this is a drawing of Lapin on the High Line in New York city. Veronica Lawlor invited Urban Sketchers to join her and Lapin and his lovely wife and daughter to come draw. Ironically, when I looked out to draw all I could see was Lapin sitting […]
