Artists Bio

Natalie is a Kamilaroi/Wailwan woman, born in Liverpool in 1968. Natalie lived in Southwest Sydney until moving to live on Biripi lands, on the banks of the Manning River with her husband and children in 2011.

Natalie creates contemporary Aboriginal art that is feminine using a colour palette that is warm and soothing. Her artwork tells stories of her family’s painful disconnection, challenges, inspiration and reconnection associated with the removal of children and the Stolen Generation. 

Natalie uses both traditional iconographies mixed with her own interpretation and intricate dot painting. She works mostly with acrylic on canvas and loves large-scale works. She also creates murals and loves facilitating workshops.
