Janine Gray was born at Koonibba, South Australia, in 1954. She began painting in high school and continued to paint afterwards through the Ceduna Aboriginal Arts and Cultural Centre.
Her paintings are informed by bush tucker and hunting stories. In her artist’s statement for the arts centre she says that her paintings “are about the way I see things in my beautiful country”, and that she “paints with natural colours that represent the earth.”
Through the centre Gray participated in a group show in 2007 at the Red Poles Gallery in McLaren Vale and in Adelaide Festival Centre’s 2008 'Our Mob’ exhibition.
