Step into the creative world of Barbara Rachko, a master of pastel-on-sandpaper whose work transforms traditional folk art into a dialogue of resilience and reinvention. Barbara’s paintings capture the vibrant narratives of Mexican and Guatemalan traditions, woven seamlessly with personal history and a fearless approach to storytelling. Her art isn’t just about color—it’s an exploration of life’s layers, a testament to overcoming barriers and embracing transformation.
In this intimate conversation, Barbara opens up about her artistic journey, her inspirations, and the process behind her bold, narrative-driven creations. With a style that is both refined and daring, she invites us to see not just what the eye can behold, but to feel the pulse of passion behind each stroke. Whether you’re drawn to the delicate textures of her pastels or the stories imbued in every piece, Barbara’s work resonates on a deeply personal level.
