"My Aboriginal name is Jalayimiya and my Skin Name is Nakarra - All Walmajarri people belong to one of eight skin groups. Skin groups help people to know how they are related to each other.

I spent my childhood surrounded by family, country and culture learning & using language and watching old people paint at Mangkatja Arts. Being very artistic from a young age the artwork of my mob has influenced the creations of my designs - a very distinct bright desert style with a modern adaption. I paint my perception of the Country I grew up on using bright colours often seen in The Kimberley region of northern Western Australia." - Brodie George
