Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, he played baseball and basketball as a youth, developing sufficient ability to letter in both at Ohio State University. According to some accounts, scouts for the Cincinnati Reds took notice of his shortstop talents. However, Bellows\u2019s first love, art, ultimately intervened, and after his junior year he relocated to New York to study painting. In a remarkably short period he became the leading artist of his generation, a reputation fueled through boxing subjects such as <em>Stag at Sharkey\u2019s.</em> In his later years he developed recreational passions for tennis and billiards, which he routinely played with friends. Bellows\u2019s life was cut short at the age of 42, due to complications after his appendix ruptured.",
