David James Bellecci’s art on display

PORT TOWNSEND — “Musings,” an exhibit of recent acrylics from Port Townsend-based painter and hair stylist David James Bellecci, continues through Dec. 31 at Uptown Dental Clinic.

The clinic, at 642 Harrison St., Port Townsend, is open to the public for viewing from 8:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday.

Bellecci writes: “In 2019, my husband and I celebrated my 60th birthday by visiting Paris. It was a revelation to see so many masterpieces up close. I fell in love with the beauty that the great painters caught on canvas. Upon our return, I enjoyed a wonderful escape from the pandemic by painting pieces that hark back to the impressionist era.

“Two of the great impressionist works, Monet’s ‘Road to Chailly’ and Van Gogh’s ‘Irises,’ inspired interpretations found in this collection. The abstract paintings are pure exploration— play with color and patterns.”
