DAVID BELLING

Straightforward and welcoming, bold and realistic…David Belling’s watercolor style captures the spirit of the timeless beauty he finds in nature and living history.

He is one with his subjects… It’s been said that his structures lean from the paper, yearning to tell their tales. “When I see something that retains a link with the past, I’m drawn to it. My aim is to open the viewer’s eye to history that is still in use in some fashion, and stir memories.”

Belling’s art career started in Wisconsin, first as a freelance designer, and later as creative director and advertising agency partner. He always painted in his free time, and his watercolors can be found in many corporate and private Midwest collections.

A signature member of the American Watercolor Society, American Society of Marine Artists, Florida Watercolor Society, Red River Watercolor Society and the Mid-Southern Watercolorist.
