Such density of life! Painting

Sabina Puppo grew up in a family of artists. Sabina’s art education started under the tutelage of her grandparents, and at her father’s art studio. Sabina was an active collaborator and helped her dad prepare canvases, mix pigments, collaborate in mixed media projects, and -under his supervision, even paint sections of his artwork. Sabina found success early in her art career. When she was 6 years old, one of her drawings drew a bidding war between two art collectors. Another of her drawings was selected for the cover of a record. Before her 10th birthday she sold prints of her drawings and donated to multiple fund raisers. Throughout her teens, she commercially sold hand-woven bracelets made from fibers and roots. In her mid-twenties she moved to the United States and focused on ink drawings and fired clay. In her mid-forties she and her husband moved to a farmhouse in a tranquil little piece of paradise that proudly calls itself Pueblo Eden in the Uruguayan countryside. Sabina has been influenced by Grandma Moses, Henri Rousseau, Joan Miró, Caleb Ives Bach and Francisco Toledo. She treasures early American folk art, romanesque, precolumbian and Native American art. Sabina loves painting stories about life in nature. “Joyful” and “uplifting” are the words most often used to describe her artwork. Sabina’s oil paintings celebrate the rural landscape where she currently lives. Other paintings also depict life in New England, where she lived for decades. Her art has been exhibited in Uruguay and the United States. Her work has endeared her to many collectors who have taken her art to private collections in Argentina, Spain, France, Italy, Germany, UK, Israel, Japan, Canada and the United States. Sabina’s wish: “I hope you enjoy the paintings as you get to imagine your own stories. I would love for a painting to bring up a pleasant memory or a smile! Each painting is unique and original, and they have been imagined and painted with great joy.”
