Garden Bench

A personal painting that represents paradise to me. A perfect day on the planet. Far from the hub bub of usual activities. A haven. The dog, a Shih Tzu, was Zoey in a favorite place. However she is not with us anymore. Use this link to buy cards and prints of this painting.

Warped Dreams

Warped Dreams. Is a good name for an image that I couldn’t get out of my mind until I got it on canvas. I went back to it recently and refined it. This image is on Fine Art America if you wanted to purchase cards or a print. See this link https://fineartamerica.com/featured/warped-dreams-lauren-bellon.html

Girl in a Blue Hat

Young woman in a blue hat and blue coat with a mottled green background

Inspired by a vintage black and white photo I found on the internet years ago – and saved in my files. There was only her head and some of her shoulder. So I had to wait until I could complete the picture as I see it in my mind.

Red Calla Lilly

For many years there was a wholesale plant farm called Hamilton Farms in Denville, NJ. This was from an image I photographed onsite whilst walking through the greenhouses. Now the farm has gone, sold out to a Canadian owned pot farm. You can smell the drying processing reefer as you drive by.

ONE OF THE LITTLE PEOPLE

GRAPHITE ON PAPER APROX 17 X 20″

This is my troll, Drew. His best friend is Suzi Cyclops. They’re writing a story together and just finished vol I.

Drew is a Russ Troll – or is he?

Beasts of Burden

A startling in the firm grip of a man's hand

The ongoing struggle between nature and man

Both man and bird suffer from their interactions. The European Starling was brought over to American soil “in 1890, a drug manufacturer, who wanted every bird found in Shakespeare to live in America released 60 starlings in Central Park. After spending a few years nesting modestly under the eaves of the American Museum of Natural History, they went from a poetic fancy to a menacing majority; there are now upward of 200 million birds across North America, where they thrive at the expense of other cavity nesters like bluebirds and woodpeckers, eat an abundance of grain — as well as harmful insects — and occasionally bring down airplanes”¹
