Rebecca Ruegger
Rebecca Ruegger

An accomplished professional illustrator, Rebecca Ruegger's artwork has been used by major corporations in their advertisements, annual reports and promotions for over 15 years. Her work has been commissioned by American Express, Proctor & Gamble, Ernst & Young, Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, American Airlines and Random House, among many others. In recent years, Ruegger has turned her attention to fine art, creating captivating landscapes and figurative works that make great use of atmosphere and texture.

Ruegger favors working in watercolor and pastels, with the occasional use of collage using found items such as paper, lace, and feathers. Her compositions reflect what many of us may not see in our busy lives.

Ruegger's dreamy, understated landscapes capture the tranquil scenes of the ponds, trees, fields, hay bales and changing skies that surround her rural Tennessee home.

"I'm trying to create an atmosphere of peace or solitude in my landscapes," says Ruegger, who paints the farm that she shares with her husband, two dogs and cat.

"The figurative works are done from imagination. Again, I am simply trying to present a particular feeling or atmosphere in these compositions."

Ruegger received the top award for her work at the Central South Regional Art Competition in 2003, and her paintings can be found in private collections across the United States, Mexico and Europe.
