ABOUT THE ARTIST
“My name is Eileen and I am from the Aboriginal community of Yarrabah which is located forty-five minutes south east of the city of Cairns. I have lived in Yarrabah most of my life. I like to play sport like basketball, volleyball and football.
I like to go fishing with my uncle Roland and walking in the mud where I sink up to my knees in the slippery mud.
My totem animal is the diamond snake handed down to me from my mother. My grandmother is Claire Ambryn who has a very big family in Yarrabah. I live with my two sisters and my mother. I am the second born and second eldest girl in my family. I like doing my art because it represents my culture. It enables me to paint the stories my grandmother used to tell me when I was growing up.”
