About the Artist
I am of Wemba Wemba descent but was born here in Geelong on Wathaurong land.
I am a mother of four boys, grandma to seven. In 2000 I started painting whilst attending the Institute of Koorie Education unit at Deakin University, where I completed a Bachelor of Arts and Honours in Visual Art. Creating art is a big part of my life now and it has given me some wonderful opportunities in which to express my culture and travel. It is a pleasure for me to be able to share my art with community and I hope they enjoy the stories I share through my paintings.
