Barbetta is a multi-media artist (fiber, watercolor, acrylics, clay, jewelry, mixed-media) who finds inspiration everywhere: from the world around her and from her inner world of thoughts and feelings. Known for creating complex, colorful pieces that visually draw the viewer into them, the artist utilizes a variety of raw materials and techniques to ensure that involvement. Barbetta exhibits both nationally and internationally, and her pieces can be found in private collections. 

Barbetta also owns itsastudio.com, a site that offers embellishments, art supplies, and a world market section full of interesting textiles and other pieces.
