Biography:
Joanne Willis is the daughter of well-known Yinjaa-Barni artist, Allery Sandy. Joanne started painting in early 2008 by watching her family painting and sketching designs on paper. She decided to have a go at putting one of her sketches onto canvas and this painting won her a prize at the Cossack Art Awards. In between looking after her family, Joanne tries to paint from home and in the Yinjaa-Barni Art Centre, coming into the centre to get advice from the teacher and her mother.
