Carlin Bear Don’t Walk is a Crow & Northern Cheyenne Artist from the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Busby, MT. He is a storyteller and his oil paint is like poetry, an expression of authentic narratives, imperative to where he lives, blended with energetic pigments, reflecting experiences of his ancestors and relatives. Staying true to self and true to form on every level because it embodies the essence of his existence from the perspective of his people. The passion behind the purpose is wielding the power to inspire and motivate through the context of creation to help those actualize aspirations. Giving viewers a glimpse into that Reservation window where he comes from. This is the realness and pureness of his expression, showing people a side of life that is often ignored and neglected because it needs to be heard and seen. Carlin’s does this out of love and dedication, to represent for his community and be their voice, to tell their story in a way nobody has done it before.
