Clark Walker was born Selma , Alabama in 1940. His upbringing and childhood was surrounded by the turmoils of the post war South in last days of Jim Crow.

Getting by by the skin of his teeth in catholic school in Montgomery, Walker went on to study at the University of Alabama's Extension Center in Montgomery where he studied under nationally know artist Charles Shannon. Shannon would have a great influence on the young man including helping him to leave Montgomery. After Walker got out of the army around 1965 Shannon encouraged him to go to art school at Skowhegan School of Art in Skowhegan, Maine.

Skowhegan was founded 1946 by artists, and is still today governed by artists, and is an intensive nine week residency program for advanced visual artists. For Walker and many others Skowhegan was a rural refuge for post-World War II painters and was a pivotal experience for the young painter searching for his place in the world. Returning from Maine he used his experiences to craft and shape himself into the artist he is today.
