Bella Dunlap currently creates and lives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA. She graduated from the University of North Carolina at Asheville (UNCA) with her Bachelor in Fine Arts(BFA) in Drawing, and is currently exploring the possibility of graduate school to continue her education. Rather than exclusively drawing, Dunlap is interested in expanding past the limits of two-dimensional art, allowing for her work to take on a unique mixed media combination of painterly and drawing techniques within her process.

She artistic interests are currently based in surrealism and how it may visually extend to religious narratives and mythological storytelling.
