Francesca Saveri~Constructions of Love~Encaustic Art
Francesca Saveri is a California artist committed to creating beauty through full expression. She credits Nature to be her essential teacher and the natural environment her best learning environment in which she has constant interaction.

Her work is deeply influenced by her lifelong practices of music, writing and movement. A former teacher, she treasures the process of growth and learning through exploration, risk taking, and collaboration. With a mixture of a little magic, humor and the belief that anything is possible, she realizes her creative visions through a variety of mediums.

A curious adventurer, she spends time each year in Salvador, Brazil where the Baiano culture orients her to new propositions in expressive constructions and reveals interior landscapes for her to explore.

This confluence of Brazil and California has led her to explore the use of strong color, organic mark making and word. Her current work features torn pages from her journals, circles which become spirals, and carvings based in geometric divisions of space. The recycling of words gains a new purpose as a foundation for current expression and is a means of letting the past dissolve through the translucency of the encaustic medium.
