  • Artist: Courtney YellowWolf Graham (Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma)

Courtney Yellowwolf Graham is a Choctaw beadwork artist, and Natural Health Practitioner/Holistic Therapist, originally from Mescalero Apache land in New Mexico, now residing in Muckleshoot. Courtney began beading years ago as a way to continue connecting to her culture.

Her beadwork features intricate designs that often highlight animals, plants, and landscapes. Through her art, Courtney raises awareness about the beauty and importance of the natural world. Courtney's work has been featured in a documentary, on television, and in a magazine shoot, reflecting the growing recognition of her artistry. She views beading not only as an artistic expression but also as a form of cultural preservation.
