Sammy Petyarre

Sammy Petyarre is from the Utopia Homelands, 200 km North of Alice Springs.
His art is a very good representation of fine and deliberate dot work which comes to represent the country and the stories of his Dreamings within it. He uses bold icons to depict his dreaming with a strong and constant use of colour. His daughter, Janet Golder carries on this similar precision in her dot work while depicting the country.
