'Robert Clarke was a prolific image maker, exploring themes of relationships, work, play, beauty and bewilderment. It is our wish that his beautiful pieces continue to resonate and find many worthy eyes and walls on the Space Coast. All the works are for sale.'
Bob Clarke was born in Geneva, NY on October 1, 1933, and married (the lovely!) Betty Lou Steen October 25, 1986, and passed away October 7, 2005 in Melbourne Beach, FL.
Bob had eclectic talent including jewelry design, painting in all mediums, as well as sculpting and carving. Most importantly, he had a great sense of humor and loved to help people. Even in death, he donated his spinal cord for research to the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, in hopes that others will benefit and not have to suffer the pain of spinal cord injury.
