Career[edit]

After moving to Richmond, Virginia in 1994, Rabinky continued to work in watercolors, drawing with pencil and ink, with an emphasis on architectural renderings, urban and country landscapes, and map illustration.^{[citation needed]} She then extended her talents in traditional art into the electronic arts.^{[citation needed]} As a mixed-media artist, she frequently merges both art forms in creating her illustrated maps and other illustration, to achieve the warmth of hand creations combined with the utility and flexibility of layers and PDFs needed for production and proofing. Rabinky became a well-known commercial map illustrator creating pictorial maps (bird-eye-view maps) for various applications.^{[citation needed]}
Rabinky is a member of the Graphic Artists Guild, Society of Architectural Illustrators.^{[citation needed]}
