Paul Bellotte
was born in Elkins, WV. His family moved Centennial Day 1963.
“Love of life from my early years in Elkins led me to art. Eventually ‘I let’ myself commit to study and graduated from Wesleyan with a bachelor’s degree in fine art- which in turn shaped the rest of my life. During my work career as a rehabilitation counselor, I incorporated art into the therapies. Afterwards in the freedom of ‘retirement’ I allow myself the joy of working in our studio everyday. I am a lifelong admirer of Vincent van Gogh and Jean-Francois Millet.” - Paul Bellotte
