How Artworks Are Sent

Ochre / Kimberley artworks are shipped on canvas or linen, already stretched, ready to hang unless stated otherwise.

Acrylic artworks are shipped on canvas or linen un-stretched, rolled up in a cardboard tube unless stated otherwise.

These artworks will need to be stretched on a stretcher board before hanging.

This can be done by nearly any picture framer (highly recommended) or you can DIY if you’re confident in your handiwork.

There are numerous "how to" videos on YouTube showing you how to achieve this.

Artist Profile

Charlene is definitely one of the most talented, exciting third generation Indigenous artists in Australia. Born in Perth in 1977, she grew up at Warmun Community, Turkey Creek, Western Australia. She has established herself as a strong and enthusiastic artist with an enquiring mind and the ability to fulfil her highest aspirations.

Charlene started painting at an early age – the second child of the late Churchill Cann and Sade Carrington, both International Artists, her earlier paintings reflected the flowing lines and meticulous method of her mother. She was known to comment when young that she just didn’t feel “right” when trying her father’s style, but it is now very apparent that many of her paintings are leaning towards Churchill’s swirling strokes and incredible ochre blending.

Texas Downs has produced some wonderful artists, and although the subject matter of Charlene’s art is wide and varied, she admits to enjoying most of all the camping trips with her family to their home country of “Texas”, and the paintings she completes of that land, with the Dreaming stories which her “kangayi” (grandmother) Betty Carrington, her Uncle, the late Hector Jandany and her other relatives have taught her.

Undoubtedly her art has been influenced by the artists she has learnt from and painted with – Queenie McKenzie, Jack Britten who taught both Sade and then Charlene, her grandfather’s Beerbee Mungnari and Uncle Hector Jandany, Rover Thomas, George Mung Mung, her parents and many of the Senior Warmun artists. However, Charlene is taking the ochre medium into a new perspective, still with the Ngarrangkarni (Dreaming) Stories of her Gija culture.

Artwork Description

My father (International Artist Churchill Cann) told me this Dreaming Story about Texas Downs. Long time ago, a woman pushed a rock from Kungame Creek to the east right up to the Ord River. She wanted to block up the creek and make a dam so the fish would all stay at Red Butte. This was a long way for her to go, but she did it. I have painted Kungame Creek going into the Ord River and in the centre you can see the rock and the dam. This is the best place to fish in all of Texas Downs – some people call it Fish Hole.
