Lyn Risling
Rumsen Ohlone Tribal Community Member - Monterey, California.  Lyn's art is strongly connected to the cultures of her paternal grandfather and grandmother, of the Karuk, Yurok, and Hupa peoples of the Klamath and Trinity Rivers in Northern California. As descendants of ceremonial and cultural leaders, family members on her father's side have long been involved in traditional tribal arts including basket weaving and ceremonial regalia as well as more contemporary art forms. Lyn has participated in her Native culture for many years. As an adult she began to create traditional regalia, such as her daughter’s ceremonial dress. She has been an active participant in the renewal of tribal ceremonies and traditions. Lyn has worked with Native youth, teaching culture through traditional and contemporary art forms. She has been awarded grants to support her work with Native youth in creating mural panels of local Native culture.

Lyn has generously donated three of her condor prints to support the condors in central California. See more of her beautiful art.

"My art reflects a connection to my tribal cultures  and to the natural world of our indigenous homelands. Using exciting vibrant mixtures of color,  I combine elements of tribal designs, traditions, and landscapes, to express a place where the present, past and future come together with Earth and Spirit. My art speaks of renewal and transformation as well as a continuation of old tribal beliefs and ways. " Lyn Risling
