Layers of Earth and Ochre Ochre glows, it shows itself, waiting for me to discover its magic and beauty

Spirit of Ochre People come from country, so like ochre, our people have always cherished the way we use ochre. Ceremony contains ochre. There we celebrate it’s power. It sustains all the elements within. Earth, water, rain are just a few. It has a timeless beauty beyond one minds eye.

Pilbara Wildflowers I paint my country in my own style. We have so many beautiful flowers that are watered by the rains. The Pilbara is a place of many beautiful colours.

Riverbank This artwork is the riverbank of Millstream. It’s a tropical oasis where we like to go swimming there, fishing and spending time with family.

Salt Flats There are many salt flats in the Pilbara.This painting depicts the water flowing underneath with the salt forming on top in ripples to show the movement of the ocean.
