While making this drawing I couldn’t help thinking about how I remember that hairstyle from at least 20 years ago. It’s amazing how styles just keep coming back over and over. And usually better the second or third time. © Greg Betza 2014
View post →I love the lazy days of summer. This is a watercolor I did in between napping, on a blanket at Brooklyn Bridge park. Thought it would be fun to use only watercolor to make a little reportage drawing of this couple having a romantic afternoon. posted by Veronica

Morgan (more on that in a later post) and she was an awesome and imposing sight. The Morgan felt light and airy next to the Constitution’s huge black hull and black […]

View post →Top mast on the Charles W. Morgan at Mystic Seaport. The top mast was put in place on November 11, 2013, just a few months ago. That’s hard for me to believe because she’s now under sail going from port to port in New England. Provincetown is her current stop. Dalvero was there! And we […]

View post →A little embarrassed to admit that I’m late to post today because I was very busy watching Djokovic vs. Federer battle it out in the Wimbledon Championship match. At least I got a little drawing out of it right? I was watching the shadows of the players when I made this drawing. Congrats Novak!! It […]
