About the Artist:

Israel Shotridge is one of Alaska’s finest Tlingit carvers. He is from Ketchikan, Alaska, in the heart of the Tongass National Forest, which was named after his tribal ancestors, the Tongass Tribe (Taantakwaan), the Sea Lion people. Israel is a member of the Bear Clan, the “Teikweidee.” Israel’s Tlingit name, Kinstaadaal, means “The Bear That’s Standing Up.”

Israel has accomplished many significant works of art. Most noted are the many replicated monumental tribal totem poles located throughout Southeast Alaska.

As an Alaskan Native artist, Israel brings to his work the pride and sensitivity of his Indigenous heritage. Preserving the art of traditional Tlingit carving has been a natural for Israel. The sophisticated beauty of the Tlingit designs are highly regarded in the art world, and his fine work is faithful to those traditional natural images.
