  • About the Artists

    Our vibrant and dynamic artists are from the Utopia region; a large remote area of Central Australia which, until recently, had no government funded art centre. As a result of their pioneering efforts, they have one of the strongest and richest art histories.

    Top Painting of 2018: Bush Medicine Leaves by Abie Loy Kemarre

    Top Paintings

    In 2018, Abie Loy's pastel Bush Medicine Leaves was viewed by more people around the world than any other painting.

    The piece was featured in Enchanted exhibition last summer and had it's own feature (on just how incredible it is). But did you know the piece is currently in our Summer Sale...

    Following closely in second was Polly Ngale's Spring Conkerberry. Given it's release date of August 2018, that's high praise.

    Most Popular Paintings of 2018

    The most re-visited painting was Minnie Pwerle's astounding 18' x 12' Big Bush Melon Dreaming. It's worth re-visiting!

    Coming in second was also Polly Ngale's Spring Conkerberry. 

    Unless the painting comes with a $140,000 price tag like Minnie's, paintings that have the most re-visits rarely last long online before they sell. (So if you're in love with Polly's piece consider making it yours soon ♥)
