In Like a Lion

Somehow even with the extra day February is all but a memory. Aside for the lack of snow, the year has started off on the right foot or should I say opposite hand, and I have been drawing and thinking, thinking and drawing, whenever I can. —Dominick

Getting A Leg Up

Been drawing since the new year, and working on various projects. More to share as the days come but for now another drawing from last week.—Dominick

A Fine Line

There is a one line between good intentions and the path to hell. I don’t do resolutions. Not exactly sure why or when that happened but I just don’t turn that way at the dawn o the new year. I do however set a course or all things that bring a little more fulfillment. Happy […]

A Little Drawing

I lie, it was a big drawing. One that I needed to scan in several parts. Wish I had brought a smaller pad. Who knew that could really be a thing.—Dominick

The Almighty Flag

A little play on words, pictures, and model. Specksthealmighty1 at Society of Illustrators a few weeks back. Always a blast to draw.—Dominick

Marker Model

I made this drawing at the Society of Illustrators a few months ago. Markers and pen. Greg Betza ©2019

Watch

I made this drawing of a model wearing a rather nice watch. I didn’t really do the watch much justice, but I like the design I was going for. Greg Betza ©2019

Here is a drawing of a model acting “summery”. My favorite season, just around the corner… Greg Betza ©2019

Model in pastels

I found this in my flat file, a drawing from a few years ago. All pastels. ~Despina

Just Sitting on a Stool

Palette and brushes in hand, there sat Leonardo with his muse. —Dominick

These Days

Not sure if these two will become a part of the adventure but it was to draw none the less.—Dominick

A Nice Knight

A long time ago, in a land down yonder river, I started an adventure with a knight. It follows me wherever I go and recently appeared right before my eyes. Tales of long ago, and not so long ago as well, flooded back. Maybe the snow moon will bring along some new directions. —Dominick

Snow White Queen

It was like Narnia outside today, yet no Turkish Delight to be found. Lots of ice and no time to play. I keep telling myself the next time it snows I am taking a snow day, but something always comes up. Maybe next time. What did that woodchuck see last week anyway? —Dominick

Class model

I had my students drawing from a model earlier today. She had a great hat on so I had to get a quick drawing done! Greg Betza ©2019

Drawing the Board

I hadn’t come prepared for the theme of the night, but when two people at the bar were playing chess and the music filling the room was resonating out hymns of kings and queens I quickly realized that the act before me was several moves ahead of me. Arielle and Brendan produced a full set […]

The Red Hat

From the Society of Illustrators last week. Amaya modeling for Sketch Night.—Dominick
