Rebecca Clark is an American artist whose quietly detailed pencil drawings reflect the sacredness of nature and the interconnectedness of all living things. Growing up immersed in the natural world, her exploration of the woods and creeks along the Chesapeake Bay forged a bond with plants and animals and laid the foundation for a visual vocabulary she would tap into many years later. Rebecca received a BA in Art History from Swarthmore College and studied painting and drawing at the Maryland Institute College of Art and at the Corcoran College of Art + Design.

I attended college at Carnegie Mellon University where I earned a BFA in graphic design. My interest in abstraction flows naturally from being a designer. After working in advertising, book design, illustration and publication design, I opened my own design firm, Linda S. Sherman Design, Inc. Our clients included PBS, the Kennedy Center, shopping malls, many labor unions, associations and the U.S. government. I sold my business in 2007 to follow my interest in painting and to have more personal time.

Some of my shots are obviously location-heavy, so beautiful that you point and shoot. Others less obvious, and some Photoshop'd (the truth of the subject retained). Now we have phones that can take amazing pictures: The challenge comes from picking the right subject.
I always made art. I grew up in Montgomery County and graduated from Albert Einstein High School, initially choosing Political Science as a college major, but it didn't take long for me to come back to a study of art, with a focus on printmaking. I earned a BA in Studio Art from University of Maryland in College Park.
I worked as a graphic designer and illustrator for more than 25 years, producing advertising material, fine art catalogues, product packaging, and corporate identity packages for clients across the country.
