This dot painting painting is by Leavannia Nampijinpa Watson. Leavannia is the grand daughter of Judy Napangardi Watson, a very successful artist who also painted with Warlukurlangu Artists. Leavannia first started painting on little boards through the Warlukurlangu Artists Art Association school cultural maintenance program and has been painting professionally with Warlukurlangu Artists since 2008. She paints her father’s Jukurrpa stories, particularly Ngapa Jukurrpa or Water Dreaming.
Buying Aboriginal art helps to support Indigenous artists in many ways. Not only does it provide a source of income for the artist but it is also a way to keep traditional culture alive and to share this culture with the younger generations.
