Krystle Young, Seminole Artist
Krystle Young, 12, is the daughter of Brenda Cypress and Steve
Young. She is from the Panther Clan and resides on the Hollywood Reservation
with her mother.
Krystle recently won 1st, 3rd, and 4th place in the Tribal Fair Art Contest.
All three of her drawings featured birds.
Krystle began drawing at age 7 at school and at home. The first time she drew,
she liked it, and has stayed with it ever since.
DSO Librarian Michael Kelly has helped nurture Krystle's budding artistic skills
as he has done with other Seminole children who display a talent for artwork.
Krystle is looking forward to art classes in high school and would like to further
her art education beyond secondary school.
The inspiration for Krystle getting into art was from her grandmother and great
grandmother on her father's side.
While Michael Kelly helps to keep her focused on her budding art career, Krystle
says art will most likely be a hobby or a part-time project when she gets older.
Another one of Young’s recent accomplishments was raising a 249 lb. hog
that sold at the 4-H Steer and Hog Sale in Brighton.
Krystle wants to become a pediatrician, a job she seems well suited for. Good
luck Krystle in your future endeavors and keep on drawing
