Art by Nae

I’m Janaeah “Nae” Nieto, a Sacramento-based mural artist and visual storyteller known for creating bold, meaningful, and highly detailed artwork that transforms spaces. My work blends vibrant color, cultural influence, realism, and imaginative design to create murals that feel personal to the people and communities experiencing them. From restaurants and businesses to schools, senior living communities, and private spaces, I approach every project with the goal of turning an ordinary wall into something memorable. As the artist behind ArtByNae, I specialize in custom murals designed specifically for each space and client. I collaborate closely with clients from concept to completion, bringing their vision to life while adding my own artistic perspective and attention to detail. My work has been featured in spaces including Souley Vegan in Oakland, and I continue to build relationships with businesses, organizations, and communities looking to make a lasting visual statement. For me, a mural is more than paint on a wall. It’s an opportunity to tell a story, create an experience, and leave a piece of art behind that people can connect with for years to come.
