My Definition of what Native American art is and what it means to be an Native American artist: By: Barbara Tetting

What is it to be a Native American artist?

I dont think you have to be Native American to create Indian artwork. To me, it is anyones art that is tied to the Native American culture.

Native American artwork can include a variety of things such as: dream catchers, jewelry, rugs, beadwork, moccasins, pottery, paintings and so on; and two different artists can have the exact same ideas and tools to work with and still produce very different ideas and looks in their artform.
