HELLO!

I'm Danielle Paglino Belin, the artist behind Mellocup Studio. I paint layered landscapes and cloudscapes from my studio in Colorado, work rooted in a Michigan upbringing, a fine art degree, and more than twenty years of living and painting in Colorado.

I work in acrylic on cradled wood panel and watercolor on paper, building quiet, atmospheric pieces meant to steady a room. When someone tells me a piece feels like a deep exhale, I know I got it right.

I take on a small number of commissions each year, and I partner with interior designers on custom artwork for residential and commercial spaces.
