about

Carla O’Bee is a multidisciplinary artist working with textiles and clay. Her work explores the intersection between form, texture, and space. Her studio practice includes creating both functional and non functional pieces, balancing utility with expression. Carla draws inspiration from patterns, the rhythm of colour, retro tones, and the tactile qualities of the materials themselves. Each piece is a reflection of curiosity, connection, and the joy of making by hand.

Carla holds both a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Bachelor of Education with an Art Specialization from the University of British Columbia. She teaches high school textiles and art in Penticton, sharing her passion for creativity and hands on making with her students. Outside the studio and classroom, Carla enjoys spending time outdoors with her two children, drawing inspiration from the colours, textures, and quiet rhythms of nature.
