Elizabeth Nyumi has had a great deal of success in recent years as have many of the major artists at Balgo, with several sell out one woman shows in Sydney to her credit. Balgo art has proved to be the most consistently painterly of all desert styles, the artists exploring surface texture and color, underpainting, the use of various size brushes in ways that contribute work strongly grounded in tradition yet stylistically pushing into new areas. In this painting Elizabeth has depicted a series of sandhills near which woman are camped gathering bush foods. This is a place she spent time in her younger nomadic days. |
