Charity was born in a small northern Nevada rural town in 1985, into an artistic family. She was featured in several competitive regional shows in her late teens with her mixed media and charcoal pieces. She graduated high school in 2003 with honors, then remained in Nevada until 2004, when she left to attend Whitworth University in Spokane WA. She graduated in 2008 with a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology (Pre-Veterinary) and Minors in Biochemistry and Art.  While at Whitworth, Charity was fortunate to complete both of the jewelry courses offered. Charity pursued the veterinary path and remained a veterinary technician for 14 years before making the leap to chase her other true life passion: making jewelry.  Charity moved to Cle Elum WA in 2012 after meeting the love of her life (a Cle Elum native)- they soon married, and she gained a wonderful husband plus stepson. Charity created Ghost Town Metal Works in Feb 2017, shortly after having their youngest son and fretting returning to a standard scheduled workforce. Charity's part-time business exploded with custom orders, lending her to take a chance on being self employed. Charity is now a full time goldsmith- and takes up space in the back of PCC as the resident artist and partner in ownership of PCC. Charity curates the front gallery of PCC, as well as the rotating shows in the rear of the space, and orchestrating classes.

Isaac started his photography  career in 1976 in Huntington Beach, Calif. and like many photographers his first jobs were shooting weddings and portraits for friends.  As his business grew , he started working with Maria Piscopo, Creative Services  which lead to the world of public relations photography.  This  allowed Isaac to work with many of the top  advertisement and public  relations firms in Southern California.    

Moving to Washington to raise a family his photography went from a career to a passion.  Still  doing weddings and portraits for friends and family he made my living as  a firefighter.  With three kids in sports, he has spent a lot of time  photographing them for the family scrap book, local newspapers, year  books, and for the families of other players.  

In 1991 Isaac was  asked to go to Haiti with Haiti Medical Teams (HMT) as the team  photographer.  His assignment was to photograph each member of the team  doing “their job” and the local color.  The end result was to provide  each team member with 140 slides that displayed the work they and the  team had accomplished.  The hope was they would show the images at their  church, civic organizations, schools, and tell people about HMT and the  work they were doing.  Since then he has been in over 20 different  countries with various types of teams with the same goal.   

Isaac has retired from the fire service and plan on pursuing his life’s  passion.  Provide photography to faith based non-profits to support the  mission of sharing and promoting the good work they do.

Dacia is a mountain mama metalsmith based in Bend creating amongst  the buttes and cinder cones of Central Oregon. She began working with  metal in 2011 during her decades-long graphic design career.  Metalsmithing gave her an outlet to produce tangible designs after years  developing digital marketing content. She draws inspiration from her  surroundings and the critters she encounters along with the moon, music,  and the meanderings of her mind while running and mountain biking. Her  whimsical work often come with a story and hand-stamped details. Each  Little Crown Benchmade piece, whether it whispers or screams, makes a  statement.

In  your daily routine or perhaps on an adventure, do you ever find  yourself coming across some inanimate thing that just doesn’t belong in  the frame but somehow really does belong and is super cool, beautiful or  personably strange?

​

Accept this encounter and forever dream, invent and stamp your unique identity on it.

Maria gets inspired by working at the forge.  She loves the material, the process and the experimentation that she can do  with fire, hammer and anvil.  

 Maria has been blacksmithing for over 20  years.  She spent her developing years as a smith apprenticing with master smiths and taking classes.  It takes a long time to  become a good smith, and there is always more to explore!  Her work has been displayed in museums and galleries including the National Ornamental Metals Museum in Memphis, Tennessee and She been featured on HGTV‘s program, Modern Masters.

With each project she takes the years of  experience she has and explores what else she can do with hot iron, always  keeping craftsmanship, integrity and a graceful aesthetic as a primary  intention.

She designs and  forges architectural ironwork, home furnishings, ironwork for the garden,  as well as sculpture. She often does commissions.

Whether working alone or in collaboration  with architects, designers or individuals, she always enjoys the challenge  of expressing the client’s personal aesthetic, along with her own. She  applies traditional, hand-forging techniques, often expressing them in a  modern aesthetic,  to create a variety of functional and decorative  items, including railings, gates, hardware, furnishings and a variety of  other metal objects.

Chris started Lion Punch Forge as a hobby in 2016. 

Chris started at an early age in woodworking, mostly carving figurines and animals, later he ventured into more construction related projects like furniture and residential and shop construction.

As Chris progressed he picked up blacksmithing, welding and basic fabrication. deciding he wanting to make his knifesmithing more intricate Chris started to make jewelry by learning copper and silversmithing. 

Making jewelry allowed Chris to rediscover his love for geology.  He quickly picked up lapidary arts such as faceting gemstones, slabbing and making cabochons. Most of the Year Chris can be found searching for his own gemstone and lapidary rough.

A note from Miranda:

" I believe, as a society, we should  be conscious of what we are throwing away, and we should work together  to minimize that waste.

I believe, as artists, we should be creating products that  are made to be long-lasting and durable in the face of time and wear, as  well as beautiful and unique.

Everything I do comes from two (slightly)  juxtaposing questions-

How do we create less waste in the world?

and

How do I create the best, longest-lasting, both durable and unique things to carry your most valuable things?

There is a reason that leather has been used for thousands  of years to create all sorts of quality goods, but as an industry, there  is still a lot of waste being created.

That’s why I created Perennial Leather Provisions, to give  new life to this unused material, creating small beautiful and useful  items that are made to stand the test of time. I specialize in wallets,  card holders, key chains, earrings, and more. I hope you love these  items as much as I do.

Love,

Miranda"

"  

Meet the Artist

I am Michelle Lierre  (Lee-air) and I live and create locally here in the beautiful Pacific  Northwest. My passion is hand-fabricating meaningful and unique jewelry  that you will treasure and are wearable works of art. Much of my  inspiration comes from my time living in Spain, the gorgeous filigree of  Mompox, Columbia, and my obsession with the handmade jewelry of the  Victorian Era. 

When I'm not at my jewelers bench, you can find me sipping coffee  with my husband, exploring the Puget Sound, and chasing after our three  rambunctious children. 

Come see what I am working on right now over on Instagram and  Facebook. Check out my Stories there for process videos on  my work, first looks at available items, opportunities for custom  pieces, as well as the crazy antics of small children, and a few random  photos of plants. I always love to share with you what I am doing and  answer any questions.

I BEGAN METALSMITHING AFTER MY SON DIED AND REALIZED THAT WHAT I THOUGHT WAS JUST A CHANCE TO CREATE SOMETHING GOOD FROM SOMETHING BAD WAS REALLY AN AMAZING, BEYOND WORDS, LIFE GIVING GIFT. WITH ENCOURAGEMENT FROM FAMILY I EVENTUALLY BRANCHED OUT PAST MAKING CHRISTMAS GIFTS TO BEING A FULL TIME SILVERSMITH. TODAY MY PATH IS INSPIRED BY MY SURROUNDINGS, MY HOPES FOR THE FUTURE AND MY PAST EXPERIENCES. I CREATE FROM A STUDIO ON THE FAMILY PROPERTY THAT ENCOURAGES DAILY VISITS FROM THOSE I LOVE THE MOST AND ARE CONSTANT REMINDERS OF JUST WHY I DO WHAT I DO. I HOPE THAT WHATEVER LIFE PUTS BEFORE YOU ARE ABLE TO FACE IT WITH A BRAVE HEART AND WALK THROUGH IT TO OTHER SIDE A LITTLE STRONGER THAN BEFORE. KEEP SHINING! -Jamie"

A note from Tiffany: 

"Hi, I am the rockhound, lapidarist, occasional  silversmith, and artist of The Wild Blue Bear Studio. I live on Whidbey  Island in the Puget Sound. The Pacific Northwest hasn’t always been my  home, but it’s stolen my heart. I love plants, hunt mushrooms, enjoy  foraging and fishing, and cooking for a crowd (I sincerely miss cooking  for a crowd these days!). I’ve been cutting stones for about 5 years now  and I love seeing the beauty that nature offers in all her wonders.  Turquoise is my favorite thing to cut, but any given day I follow  whatever’s inspiring me. I believe in kindness, hope, love and laughter,  adventures and spontaneity, storytelling and vulnerability, standing up  for yourself and most importantly standing up for others. I have an  incredible husband, two ridiculous cats, and some of the best friends on  the planet. I work full time as the Executive Director of a Nonprofit  for youth, and this is my side hustle. I miss travel, but appreciate a  good quarantine- as long as I have a book and some good music. I believe  that Black Lives Matter, and that we all have a whole lot of work to do  to make this country safe and equal for Black, Indigenous and People of  Color, as well as for the LGBTQIA community. I believe that silence is  complicity, and that knowledge is power. I believe in scientific facts,  and climate change and protecting Mother Nature. I try to use my power  (& privilege) for good and not for evil. I think most of us need  more hugs and a lot more empathy. I’m trying to learn and grow, and help  the world be a better place, one small thing at a time.

Chad Yenney, a self-taught visual artist, was born in Washington State  in 1974. Using original source material from vintage magazines and books,  Yenney’s work explores color and movement through dynamic, mixed media  collages. An evolution from bold yet simple compositions has led to larger more complex pieces, always trying to learn and  discover new ways of expression.  Chad’s latest body of work has utilized custom built panels with collage in resin, giving them a lush three dimensional quality. 

Since 2015, Chad's work has been seen in over 11 solo exhibits in Washington State and 25 select-group exhibits spanning the entire United States from Washington State, to Indiana, to Virginia, to Texas, to California. You can view one of many articles about Chad's unusual work here.  You can follow him on Instagram here:  @chadyenney.

" Perspective is Everything-
​

It has taken me years to realize just how autobiographical my paintings are. Working out a composition involves creating and destroying in order to find balance, and I like to let some of this visual editing show through as a of map of self discovery.  Marvin had it right when he said that we're all sensitive people - how we respond to changes in our environment says so much about ourselves and reveals our connection to each other.  I hope to convey something honest and familiar about my own experience so it has an effect on yours.

My studio is in a very old house I share with my husband and six year old son. Working from home is a constant balancing act where the line between art and life is quickly dissolving. Our quaint little mess is in the middle of Wenatchee, Washington. "

NATURE IS MY RELIGION AND EARTH IS MY TEMPLE

"My name is Melina Nikolina and  I'm a self-taught Silversmith and Artist, born in the verdant landscape  and thick fog of the Puget Sound on Whidbey Island in Washington State. 


I have been fortunate in working  and creating in some very interesting fields along my journey to  silversmithing. I was a painter and sculptor throughout my youth and  into my twenties. I went on to earn my degree in Costume Design while  living in Los Angeles. I worked in the fast-paced fashion and  entertainment industries for several years before realizing that  lifestyle was much too over-stimulating to my sensitive nature. 

I ended up stepping away from  what I felt was a very hectic way of life, as I felt so powerfully  called to work on my own art and to create independently. 

I  eventually made my North again. I could not deny the pull to be back  where I was born. Today, I live, work and create in Portland, Oregon aka  Chinook land. The Pacific Northwest and the richness of the Cascadian  landscape will always feel like an integral part of my being.

I often channel my ancestors and  animal allies by including their symbols and messages in my work. I try  to honor all peoples and creatures by creating reminders of our  connection to each other and most of all The Great Mystery of this thing  we call life. We are brothers and sisters, related to all humans,  animals, plants and all of Nature.

Connection is our truth."


Melina is a survivor of Lupus and RA.

 "I am  an artist and art educator working in a variety of modes and media.  Through abstraction and poststructuralist tendencies I create large and  small scale ceramic and mixed media sculpture and paintings. I employ  Found and Altered objects, various industrial and domestic materials and  processes, with ceramics which are integral parts of the works which  recontextualizes value and objecthood. I hold a BFA in Sculpture and  Ceramics from Sierra Nevada College and an MFA in Studio Art from the  University of Montana. ​ I maintain a studio practice from my home and studio in Washington State."
