Betty Feves

Betty Feves was an Oregon artist who helped shape the development of clay as an expressive medium in the years following World War II. Feves was academically trained in the late 1930s and early 1940s, first earning a degree in art with a strong secondary emphasis on music at Washington State College, now Washington State University, where she studied with noted artist Clyfford Still. She studied during a summer session with Alexander Archipenko at University of Washington, and later at his studio in NY . Feves worked at Design Technics, a design studio in New York City during World War II, where she also attended classes taught by Ossip Zadkine at the Art Students League. Following her marriage to Dr. Lou Feves, Betty returned to the Pacific Northwest, where she lived in Pendleton, OR until her death in 1985.
