As soon as you enter the Pearl Fincher Museum is really hard not to see this beautiful painting by Rosella Namok who started panting on canvas in 1984 in her community of Lockhart River. All of her paintings are personal in nature they tell a story in her life, culture and country. Namok is widely known for her technique of layering thick paint onto the canvas and slowly stripping away the paint with her fingers and other implements to reveal what lies beneath.
The painting of Namok is interesting in whatever way you start looking at it. Every detail makes this painting unique. The work she did here is a symmetrical which means that whatever she did to one side she tries to do to the other side, even though not with the same color or shapes.
