Sergeant Jonathon Bellamy returned home to his family safe and sound!

 

 

 

  

Born and raised in a small farming community in Southwestern Ontario, Canada, I have been fascinated by the colour and beauty around me for as long as I can remember.  My obsession with watercolour began in 2002 during an afternoon workshop...  I've flooded my friends and family with my paintings and they  encourage me to keep painting...  My recent work is held Internationally  in private collections in the United States, Canada, Australia, Belgium, France and England.  

I am married and have three sons and two granddaughters.   I have a large extended family and we all love to spend time by the small lake where my Husband and I make our home...  Recently retired from my full time job outside the home, I'm thrilled to be able to dedicate more time in my Studio!  I have begun teaching watercolour, part-time, and have really enjoyed being surround by so many talented Students!




I am one of 20 artists who participated in a world-wide painting project called the Global Village Round Robin... 

It was an exciting project and I completed my contribution (The Edmund Fitzgerald) to the painting on October 30, 2003...

The painting traveled almost 40,000 miles, passing through 8 countries and 5 continents before it was finally finished on November 11, 2003!
