Rickie Wolfe

Rickie Wolfe lives, works, and teaches in Seattle, Washington where she has a studio practice in printmaking and sculpture.
Wolfe received her BFA from Cornish College of the Arts, fortunate to have matriculated when its ‘fifth year’ program was offered. With the support of an advisor, a committee, and an exhibit at the end of the year, the supplementary study deepened her understanding of sustaining a connection to her studio practice
Awarded the PONCHO Artist-in-Residence Grant at Pratt Fine Arts Center for 2010-2011, Wolfe further developed her sculpture techniques and began including cast glass elements in her pieces.
2018 was significant for Wolfe, who completed a commissioned, wall-mounted sculpture for the lobby of a new Hilton Hotel in the Nashville area, her largest piece to date. She was also honored with the news of a high school art club project in Oneida, New York. Students there researched several artists, and the art club chose her sculpture to emulate and to inspire their own pieces.
In addition to inclusion in numerous group shows, she has had solo exhibits at IMA in Seattle and Fresh Paint Art in Los Angeles, California.
Wolfe is currently the Coordinator for the Print Department at Pratt Fine Arts Center where each session she also teaches printmaking and collage. She continues to accept challenging commissions, and recently completed a custom piece for an East Coast residence.
