Master Corporal Jonathon Charles Bellamy arrived home from Afghanistan March 10th, 2007!

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... My paints and paper were student quality, but I found myself painting with them every day! Investing in better quality materials and discovering the internet website WetCanvas! has helped to improve my skill and develop my style. I've flooded my friends and family with my paintings and they have encouraged 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 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!
