Kangaroo Pop Painting

I'm a proud Indigenous Australian with Torres Strait Islander roots, and my art is a window into my rich ancestry. My work spans a range of styles, from dot paintings to sketches and abstract pieces, each one reflecting my unique perspective. I honour my heritage while also exploring new artistic expressions. In my dot paintings, I love experimenting with texture and dimension. When I use oil paint, the dots have peaks and shapes that give the artwork a distinctive, tactile quality. With acrylic paint, the dots are flat, offering a different but equally captivating effect. I also create art that blends traditional elements with modern designs. My pieces often feature Australian wildlife and scenes, depicted in a stylized way with bold colours and patterns. I mix real and mythical elements sometimes to honour my heritage while adding a contemporary twist. My abstract work is all about conveying movement and emotion through fluid forms and vibrant colors. These pieces capture the dynamic energy of the natural world, offering a different perspective compared to my more common work. Nature is a huge inspiration for me. I use patterns, bright colours, and expressive lines to evoke a sense of connection and wonder. Each piece invites viewers to experience the beauty and depth of my heritage in a fresh, contemporary light. I'm on a mission to use my art to fund a year-long journey around Australia. I want to see the wonders of my ancestry and let these experiences inspire new creations. My goal is to deepen my connection to my heritage and infuse my work with the rich experiences and landscapes I encounter along the way.
