Lulu Pitjara Teece – My Fathers Seed Dreaming

Before my father died, he told me and my sister, that if we ever painted, he wanted us to paint his dreaming. His dreaming is the seed dreaming, from his country. I paint that story, it’s important. That’s why I always paint the seed dreaming.

I have a strong passion for making bush medicine, and I provide the community with traditional bush medicine to treat their ailments.

My paintings are a strong depiction of my connection to culture, family and country.
