Biography:-

Kathy is a well-known artist with work on public display at a number of locations including Bachelor College, Parliament House, and the Royal Children’s Hospital in Adelaide as well as overseas in Tissot’s corporate headquarters in Paris.

After finishing her Honors Degree, Kathy went on to become an Indigenous academic support lecturer in the NT. She visits schools and talks to students about education opportunities after they complete their secondary schooling.

Kathy grew up at Urapunga station, NT. Her father built the first school at Urapunga in the early 1950’s in which Kathy completed all of her primary schooling.

 Kathy’s paintings depict Desert Country which her Mother, Grandmother & Great Grandmothers have all grown up in.  This Country is situated south of Alice Springs and reaches down as far as west of “Kati Thanti” (Lake Eyre).   My paintings are my interpretation of the Desert Country, Mound Springs, Wataerholes, Animals and tracks.  Dreaming and trading tracks.
