About the Artist
Lisa Hudson is a Chickasaw photographer from Davis, Oklahoma. Lisa's interest in art began when she was young. It was a tradition passed down from her mother, Betty Hudson-Tyson. In her early years, Lisa's introduction to art was through painting and sketch work but now her primary focus is photography.
Lisa's interest in photography was piqued during her time at the Chickasaw Cultural Center. This is when she began to use photography as a tool to showcase the beauty of the Chickasaw people and their culture. Since that time, she has expanded the scope of her lens to the entirety of the Chickasaw Nation with the scenes that she captures.
Lisa seeks to preserve the identity of the Chickasaw Nation and its people by gaining the attention of a broader audience through the imagery she creates.
