Lyn Hart creates visual art, writes poetry, and lives life in her home studio located in the Sonoran Desert outside Tucson, Arizona. Her handwoven works, mixed media collages, and artist books have been exhibited in both local and national venues. Lyn's woven work has garnered a number of awards, including three National Park artist residencies at Grand Canyon North Rim, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, and Zion, earning her the distinction of being the first tapestry weaver to participate in the National Park system’s artist-in-residence program. Her passion for and exploration of the Sonoran Desert began when she and her husband moved to Tucson in 1997, was enhanced during the 2010s as a volunteer naturalist at Sabino Canyon Recreation Area, and was further inspired by a yearlong Arts Fellowship at the University of Arizona’s Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill in 2018. She becomes more enchanted by the desert every day.
