Noongar, Yuggera

I am a proud Noongar / Yuggera yorga who first began learning and practicing cultural art as a child. I began painting during my childhood as a way to connect with my culture and express my creative thoughts. I stopped painting for a few years during my late teenage years however started painting again in my early 20s.

For over 10 years I have been actively working in the Youth, Aboriginal Health, and Community Development sectors having experience in both support worker/clinician roles and Program Coordination/ Development roles. Most recently I have focused on Youth Mental Health, and Indigenous Employment. I have always had a passion for visual art, beginning painting as a child, completing my first Contemporary Aboriginal Art canvas at the age of 14. In 2021 I started my own Art business, on the side of my full-time work, completing commissioned artworks for family, friends, community, and business'. A year after commencing my art business I combined my community work and art business to deliver Mental Health: Therapeutic services, Cultural Development, and Art Workshops to community and schooling groups. I produce a variety of authentic Acrylic hand-painted canvas’, murals, and Digital artworks.
