“There is so much diversity in watercolors, one can only be limited by one’s own imagination. If you are open to listening to the muse, the flow of water can lead you where your imagination is endlessly open, allowing the kind of awesome creativity that real “Art” is truly made of. The kind of Art that takes you out of yourself and frees you of all limitations. This is my goal, to allow your eyes to rest on an image that will open and inspire your imagination beyond your physical world, allowing you to relate, yet freely fly..”

Belinda Balaski,, a native of Southern California , creates colorful watercolors of people, landscapes, seascapes, flowers and animals. She is especially fond of painting horses, influenced by her childhood on the racetrack with her Father, the well known jockey, Lester Balaski. Her work focuses on capturing the spirit and unique beauty of living creatures and the natural world. She is motivated by the desire to share a spiritual sense of serenity and peace.

Belinda’s creativity expressed itself at a young age in acting, photography, and art. When not performing in theatre, she was shooting pictures and drawing incessantly. At fourteen, she won a four year scholarship to the Minnesota Corresponding Art School, where she nurtured her affinity for representational art and learned many techniques that serve her well.

Belinda’s gift for acting took her on a different path. She won many awards and excelled in a 50 year career in Hollywood. She created BB’s Kids Acting School where she taught, filmed, and nurtured thousands of children, all the while writing and producing original plays. These experiences developed her artistic eye for framing, beauty, and editing a myriad of choices.

Recently she retired from the film industry and closed her school to return to her original pursuit of visual art. She enrolled in courses at Emeritus College, discovering a passion for watercolors and pastels. Drawing from a well of diverse talents and life experiences, Belinda uses her gift of capturing a feeling with an instinctual ease of composition.

Belinda lives and works in Southern Calif but spends several months a year on Kauai, her spiritual home, where many of her inspired paintings are born.

Chiseled by wind and rain
The distinctive
Mountain ridges
Of Kauai
Harbor years of
hard to cut through
Old growth
Where secret passages
And waterfalls
Silently abound
Where wild boar
And goats roam freely
Keeping growers at bay
I once saw
A hundred cardinals
Take flight
From the floor of a
Plateau as we
Emerged from lower ground
Sacred ground of

Ancient belief
Kahunas meeting
Under the third waterfall
Or deep in the heart of
The blue room
Of the last wet cave
Before the trail begins
Cut from patience
And the kind of spirituality
That no church can muster
The kind of faith that
Guides you from
Polynesia to Kauai
By the light of the stars
And the belief in one’s
Heart and the murmurings
Of the story tellers
Who plant seeds of
Fantasies that do
Come true if
You follow
The
dream
