As an artist my inspiration comes form the natural beauty of mother earth and a native culture that shaped and molded who I am today. After 25 years on the Fort Apache reservation, circumstances brought me back to Utah. With a deep desire to reconnect with the native culture I left behind, I began drawing. Through the encouragement of others I now hope to share my art; inspired by a culture which will forever be ingrained in my mind and heart. "What once lay dormant, now inspired to surface, from heart to pen to paper, experiences embraced, deeply embedded, a token of what lies hidden within, a part of me, a gift to you." Lynette Nichols
