Hi. I am Ilinca Barbato

After years in the corporate world, I faced something many professionals do: a sudden layoff — and the quiet signs of burnout. Instead of rushing into the next thing, I turned to painting.

Not to create something perfect, but to reconnect, release stress, and slow down. What started as a personal outlet quickly became a deeper discovery: art does heal.

I trained as a certified art therapist and sound healing facilitator, and a clear mission came into focus: heal others.

Ilinca Barbato. Work hard, relax harder.

I paint to capture emotion in motion: excitement, love, trepidation, serenity. See which piece speaks to you

I paint without brushes...

My art is entirely intuitive—born from movement, emotion, and instinct. I paint without brushes, letting my hands and fingers guide the colors across the canvas in spontaneous, hectic motions.
I never studied art formally, but I discovered it in my darkest times and found it to be a source of light.
Each piece I create is meant to radiate positive energy and spark joy, inviting the viewer to feel uplifted and inspired.
