Who is Veronica Belam?
Veronica Belam reveals herself as a versatile woman with a passion for life, a devoted mother of six children whose existence is a living canvas shaped by a love of travel, animals, and above all, art.
Veronica's artistic journey began in her childhood, fueled by an early passion for dance and creativity. Born in a small town south of Quebec, the beginnings of her talent were recognized when she brilliantly won two art competitions during her young school years, thus laying the foundations of her artistic vocation.
Also, for more than a decade, she has traced her path in the world of jazz ballet, shaping multiple choreographies, sharing her knowledge by teaching it, and lighting up the stages with numerous shows.
Then, after a career as a hair stylist, Veronica deliberately chose to devote herself fully to the education of her children, choosing to home school for over 10 years. This experience proved to be both enriching and a source of joy.
A turning point came when Veronica moved her children to public school, opening up new opportunities. It was at this moment that her artistic passion resurfaced, encouraging her to devote herself more and more to painting. This development was not only a rediscovery of her love for art, but also the beginning of a personal transformation.
Painting has become much more than a passion for her; it has become a way to flourish, a refuge, a source of daily joy. After acquiring her artistic training at the Milan Art Institute, she directed this renewed creative energy into a burgeoning career, determined to endure over time.
Veronica carefully chooses images that embody the beauties of nature, intensifying them with vibrant contrasts for a romantic and emotional touch. Each brushstroke contributes to making his canvas a hymn to life, embellished with golden nuances, meticulously added with pigment powder or gold leaf. Sometimes, a living being invites itself into his work, transmitting an emotion of serenity, gentleness and confidence.
I want to convey a message of hope through my paintings so that people can find comfort knowing that a higher presence accompanies them through all the challenges they will have to overcome. I hope that my art can be a source of light and allow people to take courage knowing that they are not alone.

Her paintings reveal the magnificence of a divine reality, where light transcends darkness, symbolizing the perseverance of hope in the face of adversity. Every detail, from the smallest blade of grass to every silhouette, becomes a silent witness to the peace, confidence, grace and hope that persist despite the trials that man goes through. As Vincent Van Gogh said so well: "The heart of man is like the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides, and in its depths it also has its pearls."
Today, accompanied by her family, their 4 cats and their 2 dogs, Veronica fully blossoms as an artist, wife, mother, and constant explorer of the beauty that resides in every moment of life. She plans to continue traveling in order to constantly rediscover the beauty of the landscapes that decorate the Earth. Her career unfolds like an ever-evolving web, woven with the threads of love, creativity, and resilience.
An essential artist who, through her works, invites us to perceive the splendor hidden in every corner of the world around us.
