It's always sunset somewhere no matter what your current chaos is and this one has a wobbly rainbow so it's somehow both prophetic and legendary (prophecy and legend sources are currently unavailable at this time :)⁠ ⁠ Painting pictured: ⁠ M e a n w h i l e S u n s e t ⁠ 5 x7" $250 CAD⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #art #painting #artwork #VancouverArtist #VancouverArt⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CfS0GpeL01N/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This past weekend from May 5th - 8th I had the pleasure of attending @artvancouver, Western Canada's largest art show! My hubby came with me and spent the whole weekend helping me set up my booth and attend it. He is my biggest cheerleader and support and we had a great time! I made so many new connections, appreciate some insane talent, and I was able to share and even sell some of my work. Very thankful all around!

commissioned work I: am going to share with you some stories about the commissioned pieces that i have done over the past few years that i have to put down in words. for me, commissioning a piece is always very special, be it me asking for one, or being asked of one. for portraits that i do, i would always ask for a number of photos if possible that they particularly like of themselves or of the person they are asking to be painted. for there, i would come up with a sketch, sometimes two, and show it to the client, for a lack of a better word. once approved, the outlines are traced and traced again in ink to create the blotted lines, and once dried, painted in. the correspondence/conversations and photo updates that fall in between are not short or few. i want to make sure that i get things right and have the person to be a part of the journey, since it's my piece as much as theirs. please swipe to see the progress of it. this one was painted in my temporary home, and painting it brought me so much joy. not only because it was requested by a person who valued art and anything beautiful—meaning made with love and craftsmanship, but his massive support of it. it also we have met up for coffees before and even after the piece was completed, and continue to do so. our conversations covers so many aspects, and always full of good laughs. it's a rare one, where i painted some leaves in the background, which i normally wouldn't do. however, it just felt right. i loved the original photo of him, very natural and humbled, and was very happy with my take on it. glad that his was too! . . . . . . #commissioned #illustration #petportrait #commissions #handpainted #handdrawn #blottedlinedrawing #originalart #oneofakind #localartist #vancouverart#vancouverartist #watercolour #watercolor #ink #creativeprocess #workinprogress #commissionedart #convesations #joy #love #art #jodisam https://www.instagram.com/p/CroJrQZRAyK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Within a "Purpose-driven" career like Robbartboutique's, we're here to PRESERVE, PROTECT, & RECONNECT. These are our Core Values. Success isn't measures by money or monetary gain(though we have that covered quite well), success is measured by how well each of our paintings taps into those core values as much as possible. As a guardian to Vancouver Island, protecting our unique culture and way of life is goal #1. By using our art as a vessel for voicing our local stories, we raise awareness and preserve these cultures for generations ahead(peaking curiosity in their young spongey minds). We care about Vancouver Island as if it were an extension of our family(a member). If that matters to you, then we suggest supporting RobbARTBoutique because we're not in it for ourselves. We're in it for you(so support that). Contact: [email protected] direct to preserve, protect, or reconnect a story that's significant to you(your memories). We're in-demand for our sought after style(one-of-a-kind), and running out of spots for 2023(not kidding). Please contact me, you'll love working with me, our process, and long-term benefits. Looking forward to talking with you soon. Let's preserve your story.

Want to know what lights me up about what I do? It's this. It’s the sweet dm's and emails I get from people who have just recieved my artwork in the mail ! What a difference from when I first started selling art directly to my clients- Full disclosure : I used to be so anxious about mailing art to people : will it get there safely? Now I'm way more confident : and can easily say yes, yes it will ! Artists save this post for list of shippers below these are some local heroes for shipping and of course shout out to @canadapostagram : @vancouver_pkgdepot @harrisonartservices @denbighfas *also so happy to have these thank-you cards made with beautiful branding by @novemberwild #art #shippingart #painting #rebeccachaperon #vancouverartist #vancouverart https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfcc6ukvf0G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
