Walter Clark originally studied to be an engineer, earning a degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1869. After extensive travels through Europe, India, China, and Japan, he returned to the United States and herded sheep in Wyoming. He finally returned to New York, settling in the artist's enclave of Bronxville. An early tonalist, he was friends with Bruce Crane and George Inness. He would later adopt a more impressionist style, with a lighter palette.

Clark exhibited at the National Academy of Design, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, Art Institute of Chicago, Boston Art Club, and the Brooklyn Art Association.
