We Are Being Manipulated Painting

Marcelle Zanetti was born and raised in Massachusetts. After graduating from college, the artist relocated to Hutchinson Island where she lived on the ocean for many years. Astonished by the incredible beauty and the need to interpret it, Zanetti rented her first studio in Stuart where the journey began. Exploring the Savannas, mangrove flats, Everglades, swamps and tropical gardens of this new semitropical paradise provided lots of subject matter. Her oil or acrylic paintings became layered and glazed until the perfect abstract surface was produced to mimic what she saw. Relocating to Miami, Zanetti continued to painting in Series. Commingling documentation with changes around all of us challenged the artist to a different examination of her observations. Movement, abstraction and tensions found their way into her paintings where her work continues to ever evolve.
