Coral Column
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Alongside my wife Nansi, I have been lucky to explore some of the most beautiful and pristine coral reefs in the world. People often think we take pictures of the corals and paint them, but that is far from our process, which involves (at least in this case) working from an abstract design and weaving in memories and imagination until I had this image resolved. This painting is scheduled to be a part of our (Nansi’s and mine) international museum exhibition highlighting the beauty and fragility of our coral reef ecosystems, kicking off at the new ICONIC Museum in Texas in 2024. David C. Gallup has devoted his life to the study, teaching, and creation of art. He graduated from Otis/Parsons in Los Angeles in 1990, and soon found himself supervising a staff of over thirty artists under pop art legend Hiro Yamagata on the Earthly Paradise collection and other projects. He began plein-air painting on mornings, weekends and after work, and eventually left his friend and patron Yamagata to pursue a career as a gallery artist. For over a decade, he was the Vice President of the historic California Art Club...

Nude Ascending
By Nansi Bielanski Gallup and David C. Gallup
Located in Palm Desert, CA
On a recent trip to the Caribbean, Nansi and David were frequently surrounded by large shoals of Palometa fish, a privilege which inspired this painting, “Nude Ascending”. The motif, a nude swimmer interacting peacefully-almost spiritually-with ocean life, has become one of the trademarks of the husband and wife collaborative duo. Nansi Bielanski Gallup & David C. Gallup are fine artists living in Southern California and in the small island...
