View post →I love drawing musician, especially jazz musicians. They get so lost in their music, the same way I get lost in the drawing. It’s a totally simpatico experience! Posted by Veronica
View post →Last week’s Art Challenge, or as i like to refer to it, Art Fiesta, was a great experience. It was wonderful to see the work of fellow artists; work I have never seen, or work from long ago! It was a truly positive and rewarding experience on both a personal and an artist level. I […]
View post →Back in 2004 I was and so is this drawing! I had a period where I just drew everything. This is a drawing of Union Square in New York City. Not sure I would make this drawing the same way today, but it is fun to look back at. #NYC #reportage Greg Betza ©2015
View post →Oddly enough, the one thing I dreaded about making the cross country trip in January was the possibility of missing a snow storm. I am one of the vocal few who love winter, love the snow, love the cold. Yes, I said love. Don’t curse me out. I don’t do the Calvin snow dance—at least […]
View post →I freely admit, I have a love/hate relationship with Chicago. Great city, great people, great architecture. So what’s the problem? It’s cold in Chicago. I mean, REALLY COLD! The “windy city” is so aptly named it’s amazing. I actually had to hold on to a street light to keep myself from being blown down the block like […]
View post →This is a drawing of the actual space shuttle Discovery. The shuttle is housed in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. I’ve never been much into air & space, but when you’re in the presence of a shuttle, a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird, a Concorde, and the Enola […]

View post →I recently went to draw at the Plaza Hotel in NYC. Very beautiful area with rich history, beautiful structures and some of the best people watching. I saw a ridiculously long line for the “Sex and the City” Tour Bus. Very funny. Maybe I’ll post the drawing of that another day. This time, I’ll share […]
View post →When visiting Amsterdam for the first time last August with my husband Neil, I thought that looking for windmills would be asking too much. And yet, there is was! The fact that it was pouring rain at the time did not deter my excitement at making this drawing of what, to me, is a quintessential […]

View post →The Beatles said it – “all you need is love.” Here’s a wish for more of that in 2015. Happy New Year everyone. Drawn on location in Philadelphia by Veronica Lawlor.
View post →Since so many people are busy today with food shopping and cooking, in preparation for the holidays, I thought this drawing of a vegetable stand in San Francisco’s Chinatown would be appropriate to post. Enjoy the holidays everyone, and blessings in the New Year. posted by Veronica
View post →I used to have a habit of being too early for appointments…so I would just make drawings from my car to pass the time. Here is one from 2003, NYC.
View post →Here is another pastel drawing I made while visiting Sedona with fellow 1482-er Margaret Hurst a few years ago. What a gorgeous place – the landscape is so beautiful you almost can’t believe it’s real! There are supposedly areas in Sedona called ‘vortexes’ where you can feel some kind of gravitational pull of the Earth. […]
View post →Going through some sketch books and came across a drawing of pigeons in Venice, Italy. There really were a lot of pigeons/doves. Honest. It was crazy! I loved it! Margaret Hurst
View post →I found this spread in my sketchbook and thought it was interesting how on one page I decided to cover all traces of hair by drawing these fully “capped” men, and then on the next page I’m practically combing these guys with my pencil. Who knows what goes through your mind when your drawing! […]
