Majestic Jefferson Mountain (2024) 미술작품 Sandy Melchiori 로

Sandy Melchiori is an oil painter and a landscape designer, who paints big, bold canvases with liberal brushstrokes of landscape, florals, pastoral scenes with cows and roosters paintings.

All of her art pieces pull the viewer into her fun and world of both color!

She lives and paints in her studio in Sisters, Oregon where she paints landscapes and florals of the Pacific Northwest. She finds visual stimulation from everything she sees and experiences. Born in Monterey, California, and raised on a horse farm in the midwest, Sandy has been painting all sizes of canvases.

Her love of color and nature was cultivated from a young age and inspired by her mom and her grandmother who were avid gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts. She would wander through her grandma's garden of tropical trees and flowers. So here was where the love of color began.

Her first most creative painting was a big canvas called Whose World Is It? This one is where she let her imagination run wild and began her thick layered signature paint style. This painting is a wild scene with animals taking over a cityscape -monkeys, embracing, elephants sprouting out of buildings, giraffe scouting the skyline, and a cheetah walking on water.

She is still nurturing this imagination between plein air paintings and florals. Currently, working on a Portland, Oregon old town city scene with Pacific Northwest animals emerging from the city.

Often traveling into rural Pacific Northwest towns, she does plein air painting of vineyards and mountains, and the high desert where she captures the spirit of the place and the light. In her studio, she enlarges the study into a bigger, looser paintings.

Painting outside with its endless color palette, nurtures her love of nature.  

" I've always admired Monet and Van Gogh who knew how to paint light."
