Born at Yuendumu c.1960, her language/tribe is Warlpiri and she lives at Lajamanu. Her country is Pirrpirrpakarnu and her Dreamings are Warla, Ngalyipi and Mala. She works with her sister, Beth Patrick , and s tarted painting in 1987. She has been described as a 'transitional’ painter for the way she often does a very bold Aboriginal flag on the painting, sometimes other motifs, or divides the painting into Aboriginal colours, with the sun in the middle, and then puts the dots and design on top of that. According to those who know her, this is done in a quite conscious sense of pan-Aboriginal pride. She works in the pre-school at Lajamanu.
