Thank you for visiting your CREATIVE CUZZIN! My name is Cyaltsa (sigh-alt-suh) and I am a Native American woman of the Lummi Nation in Bellingham, Washington. I was born and raised on the beautiful Lummi Reservation, which is palmed by the ocean that is host to our people's livelihood.
In 2001, I attended the Art Institute of Seattle for Multimedia, which was the perfect program for me, being that I enjoy photography, videography, graphic design, audio, drawing and...PAINTING!
In 2011, I moved to Hawaii, where my love of painting had truly begun to blossom. Being on the islands has fed my soul in many ways, all of which I am so grateful. After a few years, I returned home to the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
Exploration and new discoveries have opened up a new world for me. I'm constantly learning new teachings from nature, people and just living life, in general. The ocean itself can be a gentle teacher, but only if you're paying attention. I've learned and continue to practice patience while keeping an open mind and open heart full of positivity. Anything is possible, and I want to help the world believe that to be true. By you reading this at this moment is proof that you can fulfill your dreams with hard work, focus and dedication. Believe in yourself. 'Do your part' and leave the rest to our Creator and the Universe. My hands go up to you. o/
Hy'shqe, Si'am! Thank you, Respected People. I truly appreciate you. ^/
