Artist Story
Pauline began painting for Mbantua Gallery in 2000, alongside many other women from her region. Known for her shyness, she specialises in intricate dot work that depicts stories of women in ceremony or gathering food. Currently, she is focusing on the atwakeye (bush orange) story, which originates from her father's dreaming. Pauline's sisters, Katie and Janie (dec), are also accomplished painters.
