Hi, I’m Isabella — an artist born in Caracas, Venezuela, now based in Panama, finally living the lifelong dream that has been with me since childhood. I’ve always been drawn to creating, to shaping emotion through color, and to leaving a lasting impression through art.
When the time came to choose a college path, I was convinced I would pursue an artistic career. Life, however, took me on a different route. I graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in Computer Programming, Graphic Design, and Advertising, a combination that strengthened my creative eye in unexpected ways. Now, after completing my studies, I’m giving myself permission to return to what has always been my true passion — painting.
​
Over the years, my work has evolved as I dive deeper into acrylics and mixed media, constantly exploring, experimenting, and refining my voice. While I haven’t fully defined a single style, I gravitate toward abstract portraits and horses, subjects that allow me to express energy, emotion, and movement in ways that feel authentic to me.
​
Color is my greatest playground. I love using vibrant tones to express joy and intensity — though lately, blue has become my signature mood. When I paint, I feel completely free, and my goal is for that feeling to come through in every piece.
​
This is the beginning of a journey I’ve waited my whole life to fully embrace. Thank you for being here and supporting my art.

Fun Fact:
​
The story behind the brand name, "Bellaneta Studios."
​​
My full name is Isabella Antonieta, and when I was little, my family would call me by my full name all the time. But as I was learning to talk, I couldn’t pronounce “Isabella Antonieta” correctly. Whenever someone asked, “¿Cómo te llamas?” I proudly answered: “Bellaneta.”
​
That sweet, imperfect little version of my name stayed with my family — and with me. So when it came time to choose a name for my art brand, “Bellaneta” felt perfect. It’s not just a name; it’s a piece of my childhood, my identity, and the most authentic part of who I am.
