womens healing

Women's Healing is a tribute to the traditional healing practices of Githabul women, who used the gifts of Country—clays, water, honey, oils, stones, and plants—to nurture and restore. This Aboriginal dot painting captures a sacred moment: women gathering healing clays and stones, guided by ancestral knowledge and deep connection to land.

Soft beige and ochre tones reflect the earth’s warmth and wisdom, while the dot work evokes the rhythmic flow of ceremony and care. Painted with quality acrylics on rolled canvas, this piece honours the strength, intuition, and cultural legacy of Githabul women.

since 1993 I have painted professionally and loved every minute of it. My biggest influence in both art and life is my Dad. He was a successful artist,storyteller, community elder and traditional man. Though sadly he has passed now I hold strong my ties to my tribes and respect and protect our stories. Most of my art recounts my family stories passed on by Dad,mum,nan & great grandparents. I come from the Gidabul/Ngarkabul/Widjabul on mums side & Wonnarua/ Dhunghutti on my Dads.

I also share my passion for art by facilitating workshops for children teaching them all about my wonderful culture and art. I am very fortunate to work with and mentor vulnerable women both indigenous and non-indigenous through art, listening and sharing. I hold yarning circles with the indigenous women at a womens rehabilitation centre. we are able to hold such a sacred space really creates a safe space for healing.
