I was born in 1977 in the outback, in Halls Creek in the Kimberley, WA. I grew up there with my family. My father is a Jaru man; his country is Sturt Creek. We would go out bush, camping and fishing. I felt lucky to live in such a beautiful place where you could hear the birds singing, see animals and insects, and enjoy the different colours. This feeling is still with me today. I went to high school in Perth. In 2006, I moved to Wyndham to start a new life with my husband. We are surrounded by bush and a small creek which flows when it rains. In this beautiful place we feel the luckiest people on Earth. This is where my artistic journey began. This is my country where the rivers and creeks cut through the rugged terrain. The desert has burst into a colourful period of wild bush flowers and abundant bush tucker and relief from the extreme climate in the area |
