Biography:
Kayla started painting a few years ago. Becoming a first time mum drew her away from her painting. She has only recently come back and has done some amazing artworks using a new style and fabulous colours. Like most of us she believed that she had no artistic talent at all. Becoming a young mum of two children has given her the motivation to try painting again. After finishing a few pieces she felt proud and happy with herself. It has given her a big boost of self confidence knowing that selling her art will also benefit her two little ones.
Midnight sky This painting reminds me of when we go camping out bush we always camp out in the flat where we can see the stars shining.
Honey Ants Honey ants are shown here collecting food before winter. Bunjima people call the food ‘mulma nujnu’. This name comes from the leaves, and another name is ‘ngardanu’, which comes from the branches.
