Art
Gallery and InformationJeanette Sacco-Belli is a
San Francisco Bay Area Artist. Her passion for painting began at
an early
age earning her several awards in watercolor and acrylic. As a self-taught
painter, she studied through experimentation and by reading many books on
different painting techniques. Her love of nature’s beauty is her major
motivation.
Jeanette also finds great pleasure in studying many artists and
finds inspiration in the paintings and illustrations of her favorite ones
such as Michael David Ward, Michael Parkes, Josephine Wall, Robert Lyn
Nelson, Jody Bergsma, Maxfeild Parrish, and Amy Brown. Jeanette paints in a
variety of styles and subjects including realism, fantasy and spirituality.
She enjoys the freedom of creativity and the variations that often come with
it from painting to painting. Commissioned works also vary in subject matter
encompassing seascapes, dreamy landscapes and intimate portraits. Her
paintings usually incorporate a variety of medium and tools within each
work, for example: the textures of trees and rocks are palette knifed with
modeling paste, fine portraits in alla prima or layers of glazes, gel
mediums add light and translucency to sky and water.
Sacco's paintings in the
fantasy and mystic genres express images from dreams or meditations.
Tranquility and peacefulness are subjects she wishes to dwell upon and
capture in her paintings. Jeanette has a deep respect for all life and
believes we are completely interconnected. Animals, plants, rocks, and all
the elements are but one, we are all made of the same things and how we
treat all of life has an immediate effect on our own.
