I was a member of the Lockhart River Art Gang when they worked mainly
at the School. This is a group of young Aboriginal Artists from
the east coast of Cape York.
I have done a bit of work with Batik and lino-printing. Like working
with cross hatching techniques. I worked with pottery and done a
bit of practice printing shirts at the school.
I did art work for Great Barrier Reef Management Association Project.
My paintings were used for pamphlets and postcard invitations for
the message stick exhibition. I liked making stretchers for canvas’s.
In my spare time I like to go fishing. When its high tide I like
to go spear fishing for stingrays and the many species of fish I
come across, and diving amongst the rocks off shore. Usually I like
to make spear and find the elders and have a yarn with them about
bush tucker and all that.
I like to go pack walking in the bush for the army and walk down
the beach.
