About the Artist

Jeannie Mills Pwerle was born on 15 May 1965. She is an Alywarr woman from the Utopia region in Central Australia. Jeannie comes from one of the most celebrated painting families in Australia.  She is the daughter of senior Utopian artist Dolly Mills and the niece of the late Greeny Purvis Petyarre who was a tribal elder, senior artist and ceremonial leader who lived at Boundary Bore, Utopia.  Other relatives include the most famous of the female aboriginal artists - the late Emily Kame Kngwarre and respected senior artists Barbara Weir and Gloria Petyarre.

Jeannie is a quiet lady who chooses to spend most of her time in her traditional homelands at Utopia with her immediate family creating her stunning artworks.  With painting ‘in her blood’ Jeannie was destined to be a great artist.  Her beautiful Yam Dreaming artworks have been snapped up by both Australian and International collectors.

Jeannie has been included in high profile exhibitions such as 2006 Colours of Utopia at Japingka Gallery, Fremantle and the 2007 aboriginal art and culture exhibition in Sydney in conjunction with NAIDOC week celebrations. 

In 2008, Jeannie was selected as a finalist in the 25th Telstra National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Award, a wonderful achievement for a young artist.
