Rebecca Hutchins Art

The artist behind the work.

A lifelong practice in color, texture, and visual storytelling.

Variety, quality, original.

Rebecca has been immersed in art since childhood, then studied fine art and graphic design at Bowling Green State University. Her work moves comfortably from realism to abstraction because every commission begins with the person, place, or feeling behind it.

For 35 years, she has created custom fine art for clients with different tastes and spaces. In abstract work, she especially loves substantial texture created with acrylic, modeling paste, sand, and fabric.

Life in the studio

A little company at the easel.

Rebecca’s studio companions are Frankie, her male tabby, and Molly, her Pyrador. Frankie insists on being right in the middle of the creative process, sometimes leaning in close to see just how she does it. He takes a keen interest in every brushstroke. And when the painting day runs long, Frankie and Molly let Rebecca know it’s time for bed.
