Clarence Stewart Art

Clarence Stewart attended local schools while growing up. He’s a graduate of Jefferson Davis Junior College, and after completing his studies he was first employed as a graphics artist by St. Regis Paper Company for a short time. His greatest influence was Rockwell Norman, but his art has also been influenced by wildlife artists, Brender Carl and Bateman Robert. From the mid-80s to the early 90s Stewart worked as an illustrator and commercial artist for Scripture Press Publishing, the Baptist Sunday School Board, Augsburg Fortress Publishing, Victor Books, the United Methodist Publishing Co and several book publishers. Stewart worked for several years as a dealership parts manager with General Motors. He also worked for close to 20 years at Herrington’s Forestry Supply. Stewart paints in his spare time and says he would love to be able to paint on a full-time basis someday. He does illustrations and portraits, but he said he really likes the wildlife. Stewart later signed with a publisher in Alabama (in Tuscaloosa) and began publishing limited edition prints and sports art. His artwork on sports is represented on AuburnArt.com and CollegeFootballArt.com. Framed Clarence Stewart art are available in many outlets throughout the world. He won 1st place in the 2010 Energen Art Competition in the wildlife category. This competition took place in Birmingham and brought together artists from far and wide. In 2005, his painting of a canvasback duck won the Alabama Waterfowl Stamp Art Contest. In 2009, his painting of a northern pintail drake also won the Alabama Waterfowl Stamp Art Contest.
