« I never felt like I chose art, I felt like art chose me. It’s like a moth attracted to a flame (inspiration). Art has always called to me. »
Bill Santelli is an award-winning artist based in the United States whose paintings have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions nationally. Through his art, he explores the abstract language of colors, forms, and shapes that he sees in his mind's eye. Santelli finds inspiration from being in nature, meditation, and poetry. His striking compositions are most often created with acrylics on canvas. NO NFT’s
