Lily Kelly Napangardi

Sometimes you walk in somewhere and see something that you just have to have.

It might be shoes, it might be a handbag, in my case yesterday it was a stunning painting by lily kelly napangarti..

an amazing overhead shot of her homeland that she is guardian of outside of Alice springs...

i was up at the eumundi markets and walked past the red desert gallery http://www.reddesertgallery.com.au and as soon as i walked in there she was. Amazing energy in the painting, very quiet and solid.

I love the authenticity of Aboriginal art..no wanky interpretations here, just true connections to land and dreaming stories. I'll post a pic as soon as I have one....this is another smaller one of hers at the same gallery

Also loved the passion of both Paul and Gavin who run the gallery...

shows that if you do something you really love and do it well and are authentic then you can't go wrong.
