"The secret ingredient is Love. It’s not really a secret.
You began at the heart. Spun your brainstem and nerves and guts out like a cocoon.
I seek to reveal the unknown in order to see what is hidden, to illuminate the underlying connectedness of all things. A heart-led purpose to pursue truth and beauty.
Shift to heart centered work, refocusing on what binds us together, on accepting the mantle of a higher self.
This is a series of work about the stubborn insistence to focus on love.
As a daughter, child, mother, woman, and as an artist I am tasked to be my whole self.
Compelled by love, I make work that illustrates what I see when my eyes are closed. Art as illustration of the feeling of what it means to be alive."
Carla Klinker is an Alaska based painter, sculptor, and natural fibers artist. The Palace Gallery is excited to host a collection of her unique and expressive works through the month of May, 2026. Learn more about Carla and her artwork here.
Join us to welcome Carla and experience her artworks during Ellensburg's First Friday Artwalk, May 1st, between 4pm and 8pm. Come by Saturday, May 2nd, at 1pm to hear Carla discuss her work, demonstrate techniques, and take questions.
The Palace Gallery has FREE admission!
