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
View post →Above is a page from my sketchbook while I was working on a reportage in Mexico at Epcot. The original assignment was to design a stamp that represented the culture. Here I was exploring the language in the graphic marks so much of their craft ware displays while in the hunt for symbols “of […]
View post →Every time I visit LA I realize how much the West Coast lifestyle permeated the culture in TV in and movies during my youth. Seems like an obvious conclusion to come to, but the things that jump out when you spend even a little bit of time there are those things that set California apart […]
View post →The studio’s been in existence since 2004. It’s hard to believe this is our 10th Anniversary. Although we all knew each other prior to, the past 10 years has made us a family unit that eat together, draw together, laugh when things are funny and cry when things hurt.

She’s so culturally oriented that her conversations as well as her “costumes” are pretty global and mythical. As I said, aaaaahhhhh, lovely! Thanks, Kika! Margaret Hurst
View post →Above is a drawing I did in a combination of watercolor, gouache and crayon at the Japanese pavilion in Epcot. I was experimenting on a hunt for the best color and graphic solution to describe the environment. Couldn’t think of a better element to draw than a Pagoda in my search for the answer. – […]
View post →The Chartres Cathedral is probably the finest example of French Gothic architecture and said by some to be the most beautiful cathedral in France. Upon a trip to Paris a few years back I had the privilege to visit this sacred destination. I still think about it all the time. It’s unique spacial sensibility was such a […]
View post →As loose as it is, this particular figure drawing is actually chock full of thought … mine and yours – Michele.
View post →A small drawing I had done on location while watching this adorable kid eagerly wait (with ohhhh…such anticipation!) for the Electric Light Parade to arrive down Main Street. Walt Disney once said, “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”  Amen to […]
