Ileana Dumitriu

Ileana Dumitriu is a painter and interior designer based in New Haven, Connecticut, whose work spans watercolor and acrylic on canvas. Drawn to the natural world in all its complexity, she finds endless inspiration in the diversity of colors, textures, and forms found in living things.
Her watercolors are spontaneous and fluid, embracing the unpredictability of the medium to capture movement, light, and the quiet vitality of her subjects. Her acrylic and pastel works are bolder and more immersive — layered compositions that translate the raw energy of natural forces into expressive abstract landscapes.
