Artist Profile
c. 1935 – 2015
Nora was born on Turner River Station, south of Purnululu in the East Kimberley c.1935. Her full sister is Phyllis Thomas, also a senior artist at Turkey Creek (Warmun). Nora worked on Turner River Station as a youngster, carrying out the normal station duties of feeding and looking after the nanny goats, then domestic duties as she became older.
Nora was a specialist dot artist and her medium was bush ochre. The technique she used is unfortunately becoming more difficult to acquire, as the younger artists prefer the landscape painting. The content of her paintings consist of Turner Station (Kartang Rija) and Purnululu to Turkey Creek. Her knowledge of the land from her early days of walking through it with her family was extensive and her paintings reflect this.
Nora lived at Warmun Community until she passed away in 2015. Her paintings have been collected worldwide and her works are highly sort after as they reflect traditional dot art beautifully executed.

Artist's Description
Long time ago my people would always burn proper way when they left a camping place to move to a new one. This way, the way they did it, all the animals were OK and could get away, all the bad things were gone, and the trees and grass were looking green again soon. They knew the proper way. Now, sometimes no country is burnt – then the tall grass catches fire from the lightning. That’s not good. I have painted the Woolybutt trees after a fire – they’re looking black, but soon will be white again with lots of green leaves everywhere.
