View post →This is a tiny torri watercolor, 3.5″ X 3″, with caran d’ache accents. I painted/drew the torri at Epcot Center at Disney World in Orlando. Pretty abstract and hugely fun to paint! I highly recommend it! Margaret Hurst
View post →A few years back, I had the opportunity to get up close and personal with a couple of (very large) horses. I mainly did a lot of shooting that day as their handler had them trotting, galloping and doing all kinds of things. But as I was looking through the photos recently, I found a […]

View post →These are some drawings I made one time at the NY Aquarium. I love watching jellyfish move. When I was growing up in St. Thomas there were  some jellyfish that would show up at Magens Bay on particularly hot days, which means pretty frequently! I didn’t wish to get stung by any of them but […]

She was directing her conversation to him and he was plugged into his iphone, completely oblivious to her conversation! Wait, you have to be exchanging words and thoughts to be having a conversation, right? So I guess […]

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. This is a drawing I made of a few tourists resting by the fountain. I know it’s easy to get jaded about tourists in Manhattan. The way they walk […]
View post →“You ain’t seen nothing yet” These are the words I heard upon entering the Conservatory at Longwood Gardens. The kind old man on his scooter noticed me in my state of shock and awe after seeing the beyond-words-beautiful entrance, and felt the need to warn me about the rest of the place. He was not […]
View post →Yep, drawing with marks. Have a great week everyone! Greg Betza ©2013
View post →I do believe it! I do believe it’s true! The Penguins at the Central Park Zoo are mesmerizing! They are so much fun to watch and draw. They never stay still for a moment. They’re either chatting with each other, eating, climbing out of the water, jumping into the water or swimming in the water! […]
