Hi, I’m Rebecca. I’m so happy to connect with you!
I am a visual artist inspired by plants and nature.
My art studio + creative gardens & forest sanctuary are located on 6-acres of environmentally sensitive lands near Whitby, Ontario in Canada.
My passion is connecting people with nature through creativity.
I hope you enjoy my art!
XOXO,
I also believe in the magic of plants! The botanicals we choose together — or perhaps the ones that will reveal themselves to us — are just waiting to bring lasting impressions of joy, calm and remembrance to your home or business.
Commissioning an artist is an ancient practice. Historically artists like Leonardo Da Vinci or Michelangelo were hired by the upper class or religious groups to create something to display wealth or express opinion on social or religious matters.
Today, commissioned artwork not just for the rich and famous! I offer great flexibility and can create something to accommodate any reasonable budget.
Basically, you are hiring me (like you would any professional) to create a customized piece of work — just for YOU. This means you get to set the vision and the budget! And then I get to create something that is uniquely tailored to your tastes and preferences.
Here’s how a Botanical Cast commission would work:
Complete the Visioning Form (see below).
Meet with Rebecca to discuss your vision. We will have our Visioning Discussion in-studio (Whitby/Ashburn, Ontario) or by phone/virtually.
Rebecca will provide a quote outlining the scope of the project and estimated timelines. (Including any shipping charges + additional costs.)
If you still like the idea of a commission, you’ll provide a modest deposit* towards the project.
Rebecca creates your artwork! (You’ll be kept in the loop along the way.)
Rebecca will deliver or safely ship your finished artwork. Or you may pick it up at her studio.
*This would likely never happen, but if Rebecca needs to cancel the work — for whatever reason — your deposit will be reimbursed.
Before filling in the Visioning Online Form below, please check out examples of Rebecca’s botanical casting here find her on Instagram + Facebook.
Let’s dream together!
Please fill in the following information and press “submit”.
Completing this form will help us create a tailored plan just for you to bring your vision for the artwork to life! Rebecca will be in contact with you — if not already — to set up a meeting time for your Visioning Discussion and next steps.
Rebecca Fortin retains all image rights to all artwork created, including commissioned artwork. Once artwork is sold, collectors have the right to display the artwork in their home or business or re-sell to a different collector.
