For me, landscape painting is a valid response to a time of war, as the natural world offers us unlimited opportunities to seek and find peace.

Ben is the third generation artist/art instructor in his family; parents Carl and Catherine Billingsley teach at East Carolina University, and Ben’s grandfather, Robert Schellin, taught at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  Ben holds both a BFA and an MFA from the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, and he has been teaching at Cape Fear Community College since 2001, where he was awarded the Marilyn Goodman Anderson Endowed Award for Excellence in Teaching.
