25.01.2022 Hand carved Emu egg depicting the Swan and its babies. What a beauty... Emu-egg carving became popular in Australia in the mid to late 19th century as a form of artistic expression. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians practised the art, and some silversmiths designed elaborate and ornate stands to hold the eggs. Since then Aboriginal people of south-eastern Australia and the Carnarvon region of Western Australia have kept the practice alive.

24.01.2022 The gallery is open and we are celebrating with with our newest paintings created during the lockdown. We kick-off with this delicate and bold painting by the famous Gloria Petyarre, titled ""medicine leaves". Please click on the bag icon on the image for all information including the entire detailed story behind the painting. About Gloria... Gloria Petyarre is an Aboriginal artist from the Anmatyerre community, just north of Alice Springs. She is a significant figure in the Contemporary Indigenous art world. Gloria lived at the Utopia community after 1977, where she started batik painting, exhibiting in shows around Australia for ten years. She began work on the Summer Project in 1989 which involved translating the batik paintings onto canvas. She was one of the founding members of this Utopia Womens Batik Group. @ Creative Native Perth See more

16.01.2022 MEET THE ARTIST// Gracie Morton Born on Utopia Station, c.1956, Gracie Morton Pwerle is the daughter of well-known artist Myrtle Petyarre and the sister of famous artists Gloria and Kathleen Petyarre. There is a rich artistic tradition that runs through Gracies family as well as the Utopia community. Not only Gracies aunties but her sisters, Mary, Rita and Elizabeth, are also artists. Gracie Morton began painting in the late 1980s during the A Summer Project, where acryl...ic paints and canvas were introduced to the women of Utopia. Her artworks have been well received throughout Australia and overseas. Gracie is a senior traditional custodian of the Arnwekety (Bush Plum) Dreaming, and in accordance with traditional law she is responsible for ensuring the Dreaming, customs and traditions associated with the Bush Plum are upheld. This responsibility was passed down to Gracie from her father and aunt. #aboriginalaustralia #aboriginalartgallery #creativenativeperth #contemporarypainting #ethicallysourced #wallart #artlove #contemporaryaboriginalart #interiordesign #australianoutback #australianart #aboriginalartist

15.01.2022 In this painting, Gracie paints the Bush Plum seeds. The Bush Plum is a highly nutritious small fruit with black seeds, rich in vitamin C that can be eaten raw or cooked. Growing in a great profusion of flower and fruit throughout the winter months, the women, accompanied by the children, collect the bush plums, while at the same time reconfirming their connection to the land. The flourish of colour that distinguishes the bush plum after the fall of the rain is quickly transformed with the long hot summer months. Dried and separated, the seed and husk are scattered over the vast sunbaked landscape by the hot summer winds. #aboriginalaustralia #aboriginalartgallery #creativenativeperth #contemporarypainting #ethicallysourced #wallart #artlove #contemporaryaboriginalart #interiordesign #australianoutback #australianart #aboriginalartist

Back at the camp the leaves are boiled to extract resin. Kangaroo fat is mixed into the resin, creating a paste that can be stored for a long time in bush conditions. This medicine is used to heal cuts, wounds, bites, rashes and also acts as an insect repellent.

07.01.2022 "Bush medicine leaves" by Jeannie Petyarre. This beauty measures 100 x 45cm and for a limited time get a free boxed pure silk scarf by the same artist valued at $160. About Jeannie:... Jeannie lives on Boundary Bore Outstation in the Utopia region. She is sister to Greeny Purvis Petyarre, senior elder at this outstation and Gloria Petyarre, another very well known Utopian painter. In 1988, Jeannie Petyarre was part of the group who produced Batik work using desert design on silk and cotton. Jeannie was encouraged by her aunt, the famous Emily Kngwarreye to continue to paint her familys Yam Dreaming. The subject of Jeannies painting tends to revolve around representations of leaves collected around her country and used for a variety of medicinal purposes. In particular, she returns again and again to "Bush Yam Leaves" and Bush Medicine Leaves", both of which themes show flowing representations of the leaves. Typical of Utopian artists, Jeannie rejoices in the use of colour. Today, Jeannie Petyarre spends her time between her homeland at Utopia and in Alice Springs. @ Creative Native Perth
