Great day @frankpepepizza shooting a segment for Fox 61 Hartford!

Bradley Street Bike Co-op - 138 Bradley Street, New Haven For the past few years I’ve been documenting great Pizzerias in Watercolor.

It’s a fun way for me to share some pizza photos, watercolor art and give a little background on the pizzerias and people behind them.

Angeloni’s in Caldwell, New Jersey - A local favorite in Northern Jersey and home of the famous Thinny Thin. A razor sharp, crispy thin pizza with cheese all the way up to the edge for a nice laced char. Like a giant bar pie with great flavor thoughout, especially the crisped up edges. Thinniest pizza I ever had, I thought it was great. Makes my all time list! 🍅🧀 #angelonis #thinnythin #njpizza #jerseypizza #pizza #pizzaart #watercolor #urbansketching #bryanetch
White Plains Pizza 🍕 Today’s pizzerias in watercolor are a couple favorites in White Plains, NY.

I love painting my favorite restaurants and my favorite burger anywhere is at The Blazer Pub! Located on NY Rt 22 in my hometown of Purdy’s, The Blazer is a Westchester staple and has been voted Best Burger by Lohud and Westchester Magazine. The Blazer purchased my watercolor rendition of their restaurant and have featured it on their placemats and promotional materials for a little over a year. Excited and honored every time someone tells me they saw my art at The Blazer 🍔❤️ Thank you @blazerpub for sharing my art and @galwaygirlz for the recent pics! #blazerpub #purdysny #westchester #bestburger #northsalem #watercolor #urbansketching #urbansketch #bryanetch
Before I was a watercolor artist I was a Robot with a comedy website and after that I was a professional Etch a Sketch artist.

Colony Grill & Riko’s CT Hot Oil Bar Pie + watercolor art 🍕🔥🎨 These are some of my favorite pizzas anywhere. Started in Stamford, CT in 1935, Colony Grill was originally an Irish pub that started serving pizzas then at some point stopped grilling and went all in on pizza. An individual sized, razor thin pizza with a nice crisp. The addition of chili infused hot oil and a zinger pepper in the middle makes for a unique, delicious pizza experience. Riko’s opened in Stamford in 2011 and has since franchised out to several locations, similar to Colony Grill 🍀 They seem to be very divisive amongst pizza enthusiasts. People either love them or cry frozen pizza, but Mama Celeste never did it this thin and crispy. And the hot oil sets it off 🔥 I like Colony and Riko’s almost equally.

Roseland Apizza in Derby, CT 🍕 A legendary pizzeria, tucked in the residentail backroads of Derby. Operating since 1935, Roseland has been a staple of CT apizza for nearly a hundred years, which is always a sign of quality. The inside is a time warp to days of old with pictures older than most of the customers hanging on the walls. They’ve been doing it very well for a very long time, it’s always a pleasure to stop in for one of the greatest pizzas in the state Original, prints and greeting cards (coming soon) for sale on Etsy, link in bio! 🍕🎨 #roselandapizza #roseland #derbyct #apizza #ctpizza #pizza #pizzaart #urbansketching #urbansketch #watercolorpainting #watercolor #connecticut #ctartist #bryanetch

When I’m not doing art I like to support the New York Knicks! Things are looking up in NY, I like the recent trade. Brunson has been the best pickup, Julius has been great and will have less pressure with Anunoby who also plays good defense to balance out. One or two moves from being a top team. Go Knicks!🏀 #nyknicksbasketball #fatherknickerbocker #westchesterknicks #knicks #basketball #nba #jimmerfredette #bryanetch

A final painting for the year, one of the most lauded Greek pizzerias in Connecticut - Jordan’s Pizza in Norwalk. There’s several great varieties of pizza found in CT, one of which is Greek style. Featuring a thicker, sometimes buttery crust and usually a heavy coat of cheese. Cooked in a shallow pan, it’s not as heavy as a Sicilian or full size pan pizza but it’s more substantial than a NY pie. There’s many Greek style pizzerias throughout Connecticut, which add to the rich pizza culture and plentiful options in region. Bethel Pizza House and Newtown Pizza Palace are a couple locals I enjoy. Jordan’s in Norwalk is a standout in CT #greekpizza #ctpizza #watercolor #norwalkct #pizzaart #urbansketching #urbansketch #bryanetch #jordansnorwalk
