The Indigenous artist Margarina Napanangka Miller was born in Darwin, the closest hospital to Lajamanu, an Aboriginal community in semi-arid country on the edge of the Tanami Desert. She is a devoted mother to her three children and has been painting with Warlukurlangu Artists since 1999.
Margarina used to listen to her mother's and father's story as she watched her Mum paint. Her father also passed down his father's stories. Her Aunty, Coral Napangardi Gallagher, her father's little sister, also paints with Warlukurlangu Artists and it was she who taught her to paint her father's stories.
When Margarina is not painting she enjoys going out bush to visit her traditional country and hunt.
