Back a long time ago the people at Cossack used to get the Aboriginal people to catch turtles so they could make turtle soup.
Name: Kenny Diamond
Biography:
Kenny started doing art in mid-2001 as part of a tertiary education course at Cossack. He has always been interested in art but hadn’t had the opportunity until then.
Kenny has a style unlike any of his fellow artist friends. He cares for colour and dots. He spends a lot of time drawing in his visual diary, constantly changing and improving.
It is truly amazing to see his diversity in colour and design. He has used the traditional method of dotting and has used it to suit his purpose. He has a particular neat quality about his work, taking care to dot in detail. Kenny is passionate about painting his country and culture.
