Ms Bewick, who was in her 80s, died at her home in Caragh Lake.
Born in 1935 in England, she spent much of her life in Kerry.
Pauline Bewick was a sculptor, she painted in oil and also worked with cloth.
However, she was most associated with water colours.
In 2006, she donated a collection of 200 works to Killorglin Library and to Waterford Institute of Technology.
Here Pauline Bewick describes her love of Kerry.
The Cathaoirleach of Kenmare Municipal District Patrick O’Connor-Scarteen paid tribute to Pauline Bewick and offered his sympathies to her family.
Cllr O'Connor-Scarteen said she was a wonderfully gifted artist who had made Kerry a hub for other artists and creatives.
She will repose at her residence in Treanmanagh from 4 to 8pm this Sunday.
Private family cremation will take place in Island Crematorium in Cork on Monday.
