About the artist
Hi! I’m Bell Quintão, a handbag and shoe artist, born in the colorful culture of Brazil and now based in the creative energy of San Francisco, CA. My life is a sensory adventure—I love to experience the world through its colors and textures; it's what makes me feel truly alive. For me, life is meant to be experienced in full technicolor and rich textures. This passion isn't just part of my art; it's a part of who I am. Join me on this colorful journey where every sensation tells a story and every moment is an opportunity to feel alive!
I studied bag making at the London College of Fashion and Central Saint Martins, and I earned my Master’s in Footwear and Accessories Design from the Academy of Art University.
