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

40cm x 58cm Ochre on Canvas, 2005
 

Jock Mosquito

Jock was born on Nicholson Station bordering on desert country and situated over the Northern Territory border from Kununurra (East Kimberley) where Jock now resides (Kununurra and Warmun Community).  

He spent his working life based at Nicholson, and like other stockmen of his day, mustered on surrounding stations – the best of his profession were valued and the station owners provided them with as much work as they wished as mustering time varied throughout the region.
 
He did not ever know his mother – his father and grandmother “grew him up” (raised him). He had the opportunity to go to Beagle Bay for schooling, but his father and grandmother did not wish him to go – a fact which he has regretted all his life.  Jock has often commented “If I had spent more time in school than the stockcamp, I would be a lot better off”. 
 
With no formal education, Jock has avidly participated in important cultural and business matters in his country.  He was Chairperson of the influential Wunun Regional Council and has been a leading figure in Aboriginal Affairs in the Kimberley – everyone knows Jock! 

He is of Jaru tribe and married Doreen, a Kitja woman from Warmun (Turkey Creek).  Jock met Doreen when she was at school in Halls Creek – Doreen was fortunate to have the schooling Jock missed.
 
He worked for Len Hill at Nicholson – a “real top man” – taught him how to drive cars, pull bores, fencing, operate machinery, and eventually Jock became head stockman.  He worked at Nicholson until it was sold to Janet Holmes a’Court. Before he was 20, Jock was offered a lucrative contract on the Australian Rodeo Circuit, however declined and remained a stockman for many years.
 
He and Doreen have six boys and two girls and 'nearly forty' grandchildren – he says this with pride in his voice.  He is a real family man and has been rewarded by his children who support their mother and father and form a tight-knit and caring family group.
 
Jock’s family community is Ngling Anjaru (Cattle Creek) via Halls Creek and he is very proud of his home.  He sometimes advises on contract musters these days – mustering has changed – it’s now aerial survey which requires fewer ringers and stockmen, but Jock has progressed with the times and handles everything he does very well ~ including his painting!
 
His artworks are included in National Gallery of Australia and prominent private collections and Jock’s 2006 Solo Exhibition at Japingka Gallery was a sell out success.
