Black cats are the most common cats, but the least adopted because of lingering superstitions 😢

🎨April 2025 Artisan of the Month: Natalya Nez

A Diné (Navajo) multidisciplinary artist and educator born in Gallup. Natalya is Tsi’naajinii (Black Streaked Wood) born for Dibé ∤izhiní (Black Sheep). Her maternal grandfather is Tó’dích’iinii (Bitter Water) and her paternal grandfather is Tábąąhá (Water’s Edge). Natalya was raised in several different places including the Ramah-Navajo Reservation, Chichiltah and the Grand Canyon area.
When it comes to artistic expression she has found that her broad interests have led her to create an eclectic body of work in different mediums and artistry’s such as painting, printmaking, photography, embroidery, beadwork, paper collage, digital design, illustration and teaching. Although she works in a variety of different media her approach and inspiration to her work remains the same. She takes inspiration from Diné Bikéyah (the lands around and on the Navajo Nation), her Diné culture, and her childhood growing up in New Mexico.
