Artist Profile

Rebecca Wallerstein

San Rafael, CA

As a young child, my great-aunt, who was a Bay Area artist, saw my innate artistry and began my training in watercolor at her small kitchen table in Marin. I have since expanded to become a multidisciplinary artist. Mediums include: charcoal, soft and oil pastels, acrylic, ceramics, sculpture, photography, digital arts, graphite, and encaustic.

In my youth, I studied art and art history in Florence, Italy and attended CCA in Berkeley, studying charcoal and acrylics. I became a graphic designer following my digital arts studies at COM.
After many years in this field, I pursued a degree in psychology at Dominican University of California desiring a career in art therapy.
Being immersed in the fine arts once again, I was reminded of my soul’s true desire to be a conduit between the imagination and the physical. So here we are!
