Our vision is to invest in the next generation and support women to do what they love, where they love. With renowned artists in her family from East Arnhem and Groote Eylandt, Louise joined Starwin in 22 via the Youthworx NT program and at 20 years of age, she is keen to learn, and grow her own creative enterprise. This is the fourth painting in her first series, drawing on knowledge passed on from elder generations.
Artists Story
'The story to the painting is where it's a saltwater stingray, where all my family love to paint, and it's also good bush tucker we eat from the sea.
My grandfather, Gerald Blitner, used a lot of colours and cross-hatching (in our tribe we don’t use dot painting). I want to remake and take on what he had done and pass it down the bloodline.'
Stretched canvas, 39cm x 45cm
