Artist Statement

 

The Artist has traveled in England and Italy, photographed beautiful landscapes, buildings and people and works from her photographs and live models to create her paintings and sculpture.

  

A native of Washington State, Pamela Searcy grew up in Central Washington where her family owned orchards on the Yakima Indian Reservation. Drawing and painting were her favorite adventures as a child and she continued her interest in art studying Design, Drawing, Painting, Sculpture and Art history at Seattle University and the University of Washington.
 

After completing under graduate and graduate degrees from Seattle University, Pamela taught elementary school and then art at Inglemoor High School. With the demands of three small children the Artist was busy at home for several years, keeping up with her artistic interests as time allowed. Now that the children have completed their university degrees, the Artist is enjoying a new freedom to arrange her interests around a life long love of artistic expression.

 

Following retirement, Pamela returned to Yakima, Washington where she currently resides.

“Art adds to all our lives, gives a way of expressing feelings, enriches our understanding of the world and shares joy.”   Pamela Searcy

​Artist Statement

 

Ike uses a wood lathe to turn unusual wood pieces into his fanciful creatures and small carefully finished wooden boxes. The pens are large and dramatic or small and colorful. Some pens compliment specific careers or hobbies and others are simply fun. 

Turned wooden boxes are perfect for securing tiny treasures.

​Artist Statement

 

I was raised in the fruit farming region in North Wapato. At a very early age, I developed a love for art, which eventually led to my attending CWU in the late 80’s on the G.I. Bill for the study of Fine Arts. During my time at Central, under instructors Chris Papadopoulos and Richard Fairbanks, the ceramic sculptures I created received awards in the Larson Gallery’s Central Washington Artists‘ Shows.

My love of nature together with my love of sculpture led me to working with area river rock, combining their natural sculpted shapes to create my sculptures. This period culminated in my marriage and a move to Michigan. I would be making sculptures there and later in Texas and Florida for the next 30 years before retirement and my return to the Valley and its river rock. Now I spend winters in Florida and the rest of the time in Yakima.
