*Please note that the intricate technique used by Elizabeth means that the paint refracts light in a unique way that is difficult to capture in a flat image. This palette comprises of a soft, light blue-grey, white, and a sage green colour on linen primed with China red.

Elizabeth is the daughter of the late artist Nancy Petyarre, and through the complex Aboriginal kinship system, Elizabeth is also the
granddaughter of one of the most revered Utopian artists, Emily Kame Kngwarreye. Through thousands of tiny rhythmic strokes, Elizabeth depicts the movement of the pencil yam seeds (kame) as they are thrown into the wind, dispersed across Atnangkere, her ancestral country. Elizabeth paints some of the yam seeds larger than others indicating a plumpness if there has been rain. She also employs colour to depict the yam seeds and leaves that have dried out and those that are still supple.
