About Rebecca Woodman Taylor

Rebecca Woodman Taylor believes some of the most meaningful things begin with what others overlook.

Her connection to the coast started during family summers in Cape Neddick, Maine, where her Nana introduced her to the simple tradition of the tide pool, where lifting a rock and moving seaweed aside reveled the amazing treasures of the ocean. Those quiet moments spent exploring the tidepools  taught her to slow down, pay attention, and appreciate the beauty in ordinary things. Today, she continues that tradition on beaches across the United States, most often at Cherry Grove Point in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where she spends time with her dad.

Every shell, sand dollar, and piece of sea glass used in her work is collected by hand, then carefully cleaned and prepared. Rather than changing nature, Rebecca works with it, letting the shape, texture, and history of each piece guide the finished design. The result is coastal artwork that feels personal, timeless, and connected to the place where it was found.

Rebecca's creative philosophy is also shaped by her professional career. As the founder of RWTNYC, she works as a visual storyteller and marketing strategist, helping creative businesses build thoughtful brands and meaningful experiences. Her background includes nonprofit organizations, cultural institutions, and luxury event production, where she learned that the best work doesn't always come from having more—it comes from using what you have with intention.

Whether she's creating coastal art, helping a business tell its story, or leading a workshop on the beach, her goal is the same: to help people see things differently, appreciate what is already around them, and create something that has meaning long after the experience is over.
