Painters
|
Our collection includes works created by a large number of artists from numerous communities across Australia, ranging from emerging and urban artists to the most highly respected established artists, living and deceased. Our collection includes a wide variety of artworks ranging from ‘entry level / affordable’ works to high-end ‘investment / collector’ pieces. Whilst our principal focus is on Central and Western desert art, we have many fine works from other regions including The Kimberley, Arnhem Land and the Top End. The works are generally painted in acrylic on canvas or linen, or in natural ochres on bark, boards or canvas. Our philosophy is to purchase the high quality artworks we have for sale or corporate rental rather than to rely on ‘consignment’, which usually delays payment to the artist for extended periods until the works are on sold. |
Our works are sourced in various ways including from:
