Our creative space is an original art studio offering painting and sketching lessons for kids and adults in one inspiring location. The mission of our studio is to provide students with a high quality painting and sketching education. We aim to create expressive artists who can use what they learn in class in other areas of their daily life.

María Isabel Delgado
Founder
Maria Isabel is the Creative Founder of LDVinci Art Studio. She is a South American Artist from Colombia. You might be surprised that besides Maria Isabel’s Artistic Talent, she is also a graduated lawyer from the “Univesidad Autonoma of Bucaramanga” (www.unab.edu.co) in Colombia – South America, class of 1994. After graduation, Maria Isabel worked for the Colombian government at the “Fiscalia General de la Nacion” (www.fiscalia.gov.co) – equivalent to the “Attorney General’s Office” in the USA. Nevertheless, her passion for Art started at a very young age. Maria Isabel started to paint since she was three years old. Her parents were very encouraging, and decided to cultivate that aptitude by bringing her to Painting lessons with great local artists. One of her first tutors was a nun named Ma. Graciela from the “Colegio de la Presentación” in Bucaramanga.
