Loved Ones – Collection of commissioned portraits
By Nathalie Nicole BOUTIN ( boutin ), contemporary figurative painter in Montreal
“Loved Ones” is a collection of commissioned works and portraits created by Canadian painter Nathalie Nicole BOUTIN , known under the signature boutin .
This series pays tribute to the deep bonds we have with those we love – whether it's a lost loved one , a parent , a child , a loyal friend , or a pet .
Each painting is a personalized work of art , painted with emotion and delicacy, to immortalize the presence, tenderness and inner light of a loved one.
Through this collection, Boutin seeks to capture more than just the features of a face: she paints an emotion , a subtle energy , an inhabited silence . Each portrait becomes a living trace of love, a poetic memory that transcends time.
Created in acrylic on canvas or in pastel on paper , his works are distinguished by a sensitive, refined and contemporary approach.
Custom portraits can be created from photos and personal exchanges with the artist, in order to convey the unique essence of the person portrayed.
Giving or commissioning a portrait of a loved one means choosing an authentic, emotional, and timeless work of art—a pictorial tribute that celebrates the beauty of human connection and the power of memory.
For any commission, collaboration or personal project, contact the artist to discuss your vision and create together a work that reflects you.
