Artist Statement: "I find a lot of empty shells of the sand dollar washed up on the shore and sometimes I see them in the water in the water and I paint them in many colours."

The Jacobs' adopted me and my sister Gay. In the 60s I was sent out to work on the mainland. I worked at Julia Creek. As I raised my family, I also adopted a few more children. Now I am surrounded by my family. "I use to muck around scribbling, drawing little houses with my kids. My children tell me to join the old people here at the Art Centre, save me from worrying, take my mind off things. It's also good to be alongside family members at the Art Centre working, creating and learning together."
