Rebecca Hinson Art Blog

Hooray! The new and improved Rebecca Hinson Art website has launched! Obviously if you are reading this blog then you are on the new site...Welcome!!! Who knew one could get so excited about a website. I guess in 2015 this is the kind of thing we get excited about, right? This new website has it's own art galleries for oil paintings and illustrations; a complete e-commerce shop; an art blog; and more! I couldn't be more happy with it. Thanks Garuda Crafts Web Development for going way beyond my expectations on this on!      ..

Who doesn’t love a good blogger? An exceptional blogger is hard to come by. One whose entries don’t take 3 hours to read (sorry to the long winded bloggers…I just don’t have time for that). One with lots of good photo content (I’m super visual obvisouly)…And of course an immaculate fashion sense. Brittany of Southern Meets Chic is just that blogger. Her looks are on point and precisely what the title suggests…southern combined with the crème de la crème of chicness. Southern fashion is a curious creature indeed. I like to think we take the best from all areas of the country. Add a little bit o..

A couple of months ago Lela Rose had a fashion show in NYC. Of course I was not there (I wish). So how did I know about a Lela Rose fashion show you ask? One word, Instagram. The holy grail of all social media sites (at least in my eyes at this point) was flooded with photos from the Spring 2015 show. And WOW! How inspiring her Ready-to-Wear was and is! Above is my favorite from that night. 'Look 36', you are so darn beautiful! All my favorite colors wrapped into once whimsical gown. Oh, how I wish you were hanging in my closet! ..

So I will not try to hide it, when it comes to bows I am like a 6 year old little girl. Ok, truth be told there are actually quite a few similarities between me and the most perfect childhood age but we won't get into those. The one I'm speaking about today is bows. I love bows! All types! And I can't think of a better place for a bow than on an amazing pair of pumps! Designer Aminah Abdul-Jillil has created one of the most perfect bow pumps and they come in all different vibrant colors and patterns. I'll take two pairs, please. ..

There are of course an abundance of things in life that make me extremely happy. I'd like to share some of my top favs: 1. any type of furry baby animal. 2. spring and summer months (the hotter the better, I don't care! I love it!) and 3. any dress that has pockets. Pockets on a dress are key. They are perfect for keeping your lipgloss handy or heck, you can just go completely purse free and stash everything in there! Needless to say the inclusion of pockets on dresses was a pretty simple yet genius idea. That being said, I recently saw a post of a Lulakate bridal gown and noticed it h..

Why winter? Why? Why do you do this to me? Actually arrive that is! I cannot believe how cold it is. O.K., I know, I know. It is winter time, but this is the south and generally speaking our winters are pretty mild. So let's just hope that this arctic freeze leaves us soon! While I've been completely bundled, wearing all my outdoor winter fashion attire inside the studio, I did a few sketches to reflect this cold weather. Yes, we have heat in here, but this cold chills me to my bones and I'm having a hard time warming up. Here is to positive/warm thoughts!..
