Happy New Year! On behalf of Studio 1482 I’d like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you that visited our site, liked our work, or just offered a note of support this year.

I’ve been looking for more opportunities to create animated content and happily I received an email from the Washington Post asking for just such a thing 🙂 People are having difficulty, naturally, furnishing their homes during the pandemic. So we decided to show a room coming together piece by piece, hoping it all comes together. […]

jail violence by greg betza

I was asked to illustrate another piece about the explosion of violence in the California jail system. Rather than choose a specific incident to illustrate I decided to created an image to symbolize all of the victims. Below are the sketches I submitted. They appreciated the variety, and I appreciated that. I’ve included some process […]

I’m honored to be included in the Canadian ART IN TRANSIT show “Sketching The Line”, an exhibition of reportage drawings made while of commuters and subway-goers. Back in 2007-8 I took advantage of my time on NYC subways by drawing anyone I could. For practice, yes, and because I just love to do it. I […]

Last week, Studio 1482 illustrator Dominick Santise and I attended the Workbook Creative Carnival in Chicago. We then spent the next 2 days creating reportage drawings around the city. Now I love NY, but Chicago is like a friendly, clean, slightly more relaxed version…which frankly is nice from time to time. We navigated the city […]

Animating #cats today! The best part of being an #illustrator (for me) is the variety...I never know what I’ll be working on and I love it that way.
Nice to see some of my work on the shelves this weekend 🙂 #winelabelart #winelabelillustration #illustration
New for @washingtonpost today. Meet the #jurors of the #derekchauvin trial.
Back at it. Postponed for the #pandemic but the project is back on 👏🏼
Last June I was asked to create this new merlot label. It was a very focused project and one that I was very grateful for. It was one of the few projects that I worked on during the lockdown and it really helped keep my mind positive. It was very peaceful exploring the delicacy of wings, the design of the filagree, and the iconic ‘A’.
Last night’s fashion drawing session with @bildonovan @soi128 @offenbad
