View post →I happened to be in Union Square on Sunday, August 9th. It was the one year anniversary of the black, unarmed teenager Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri. A group gathered to talk about the death and the death of many others involving the police. The man on the left in the drawing lost two […]

View post →In a few weeks I’ll be flying down to Florida to join in on an adventurous, rigorous, wonderous and valuable reportage workshop with the Dalvero Academy. In preparation for the trip I’ve pulled out some older drawings to make some plans before my arrival on site. Without a plan (trust me panic sets in real […]
View post →While on the trip to Cuba we drove into the countryside west of Havana. This gentleman was sitting on his bull while his friends were talking on the bench. The tree was huge with its beautiful large green leaves. A beautiful day in Vinales! m. hurst
View post →I’ve just returned from a trip to Belgium. While enjoying a beer one afternoon I spotted this gentleman sipping a beer too. He deserved it after all of the work it must have take to get that mustache just right! Greg Betza ©2015

A little late posting this morning because I was watching #Wimbledon. This morning’s match featured, yet again, the Williams sisters, Venus and Serena. They are an amazing story…have been for a long time. Here are a few quick ink paintings I made throughout the match. Greg Betza ©2015
View post →I made this drawing last week at the Society of Illustrators. The model was a circus-style acrobat and an all around amazing athlete. Great to draw. Here are more drawings from this series. Greg Betza ©2015

View post →I loved Ronnie’s previous post of the cigar smokers! It was a truly fun evening in Cuba drawing the cigar smokers at our hotel! They were so into it! It turns into this ritual fantasy. The body language tells it all! They are definitely in another zone. Could have drawn them forever! m. hurst

View post →On this very special Father’s Day I thought it’d be sweet to share an intimate sketchbook study done before my two little guys were here. With their round and tender ways a baby hands and feet for me has always been incredibly inviting to draw. To all good Dad’s (near and far), hoping your day is a treasure of moments […]
View post →As Marg pointed out in yesterday’s post, we just returned from Cuba. I have been fighting a traveler’s cold, and not able to scan too much yet, but wanted to put up this drawing as a ‘bocadito’ – or little snack. Will be posting my drawings and thoughts on the experience on my home blog […]
View post →This gentleman’s name is Armando. He lives in Cuba. Ronnie, Julia and I were drawing on the waterfront in downtown Habana when this gentleman showed up. He threw flowers in the water. We asked him why he did this. He said it was for his baby daughter, that she would be well. He asked us […]
