‘When I paint it takes my worries away. It takes the beauty out from within me to put on canvas, so that the world can see I’m a beautiful person within.’
‘I’m a Noongar Martu, and a single mum. I started painting about eight years ago. I didn’t know I could paint. I could draw – my favourite subject at school was Arts and Crafts. I’ve lived most of my life in Perth. I only decided to go back home so my kids could learn who they are and where they come from, their culture and language.
When I paint it takes my worries away. It takes the beauty out from within me to put on canvas, so that the world can see I’m a beautiful person within. I want to become a well-known artist, and for people to appreciate my work. I hope one day I make it. I’d love to become famous for my art. My kids are proud of me. They love my work.’
