Hello my name is El-Lee-Zaa I am a very colourful Turtle that leaves not far from here. I love my ocean and my ocean family, me and my fellow friends like to spend the day just playing and telling each other about the pros and cons of ocean life, only because we are passionate about our ocean.

Biography:
I was born in Thursday Island and grew up on Darnley Island. I have always been interested in making things. I have always crocheted and enjoyed sewing and handcrafts. Since joining the art centre I have gained confidence in myself as an artist and I want to do things that represent myself, my family and my surroundings from before time to these modern times that we live in. I am presently enjoying weaving and making bags and three-dimensional forms from ghost nets.
