Picnic Rug – Lila Creek – Bush Plants

The Djilpin Arts Picnic Rug range is a celebration of life on country around the waterways of Wugularr community and surrounds. Inspired by the artists’ love of heading out bush and throwing down a calico to fish, swim and relax on their traditional lands, these designs feature fish, bush fruits, billabong flowers and medicinal plants.

Biography:

I was born in Mossman. My mother’s people come from the Kuku Nyungkul clan of the Shipton Flat/Helenvale area. My father belongs to the Kaanju tribe of Coen.

I have been making art for a few years now and love bright colours as they make me feel happy. I paint, print, make jewellery and love all textile art.

I have a large family, 4 children, 3 step-children, 21 grand kids and 39 great grand kids.

I love going out with the family to the beach hunting for food and having a fire with damper.
