"I have lived, worked, taught, raised children, married, divorced, laughed, screamed and cried in the Palouse. It is in my blood. I was schooled at Fort Wright College and WSU. I work with my family at Eureka Software, on Eureka Farm where I grew up. I have played in the mud, made clay sculpture, painted paintings, painted my house. I play with life, in life and through life. What’s it all about, this art? Got a minute? OK then…Just be in it. Bring yourself. Look hard and deep. See yourself? You can do it. Anything is possible. Now say…I am healed." -- Tina Ochs


My connection to the Palouse is from birth. 

A bend in the road

The night sky

A gray day

Every day, I travel a road that leads from my mother’s childhood home
to my father’s.

The volcanic ash hangs above Little Alkali Road like a ribbon of fog.

The dust smells like home.

Green grass spring

Wheat berry harvest

The hills cut a hard edge against the night sky.

Pink dawn

The road bends

An icy blast of snow

Bright blue sky

Deep shadows

No shadows

A journey

A road

A path

Less mind

Understands itself
