Biography:
Sonia was born in Port Hedland and grew up in Jigalong before moving to Parnngurr Community with her family. “I’m raising four children here. Parnngurr is a good place, it’s quiet here and the mob is busy. I’ll teach my kids to paint when they’re older.

She has also painted the story of her grandmother Daisy’s journey along the Rabbit Proof Fence.
