The paintings of Renaldo Bellini exemplify a style and methodology that go beyond the empirical world. Yet it is the simplistic beauty of the paintings that draws the casual observer into a new dimension. It is this dimension that defines his paintings as masterpieces of such exquisite detail that words fail to explain the beauty within each masterwork.

The essence of the Renaissance masters has combined with the artistic vision of a Bellini Masterpiece to create a new genre within the oil painting medium.

The Renaissance masters glazed as a means of highlighting specific areas to give the painting spatial perspective, which is called in the art world, the third dimension effect. Renaldo Bellini has taken the genesis of what the Renaissance masters have done and applied it to the whole canvas. Yet this still fails to grasp the true meaning of how he paints. Every object within the painting has at one time or another been every other color. There are thousands of layers of color within each painting and millions of color combinations. As the last brushstroke is applied do we see the actual color of the object. Yet it is the layers of color underneath that take the painting into a fourth dimension. To attain the fourth dimension a single layer of pigmentation is glazed and sealed. After which each layer is allowed to completely dry before another layer is applied, of which there are more than a thousand different layers and literally millions of color combinations determined by means of x-ray. Moreover, colors are not mixed to create a different color. The thin layer of glaze separates the paint and allows the artist to place every color within every aspect of the painting until the desired effect is achieved which is why it takes three to five years to complete each masterwork.

Collectors from around the world have offered record prices for these unprecedented masterworks. It is the desire of the master, to leave these creations within the confines of an equally exquisite and permanent facility as his legacy.
