Tlingit Legends was my very first art show. A big thank you to Sitka Fine Arts Camp, the host of my art event. Photographed in the spring, the models braved the chilly spring air and frigid waters. Special thank you to the Alaska Raptor Center, whose birds and their handlers took the time and effort to help us capture the precise looks I was after for this shoot. This art show was all about providing a foundation for sharing Tlingit culture. The Tlingit Legends book shares this elemental information, stories and the beautiful photography by Christal Houghtelling.
