‘Dingo Country’
“I find much of my subject matter in the country surrounding my desert home, next to the mighty Fitzroy River, 200 kilometres from Broome. I like to feature the elegant indigenous girls and women of the Kimberley, dancing and interacting with native animals and birds – especially dingoes. My encounters with dingoes over the years have provided me with many images of human connection with them. 

In my early paintings in the 1980’s, I focused on birds, especially wetland birds, after spending time camping in Kakadu with my birdwatching father. So I now love to paint the myriad species of birds and animals I see daily around the billabongs and springs on my property.”

We are super excited at Black Stump Gallery to be representing Judy Prosser for her upcoming exhibition ‘Dingo Country’ This is Judy’s first exhibition for 13 years and she has told us – her last! So let’s have a blast! Make sure you don’t miss out, RSVP today.

About The Artist

Judy was born in 1952 in Western Australia. Her artistic career began at the very early age of 6, when she spent afternoons after school drawing pictures in chalk on the blackboard of the school where her father was a schoolteacher. Encouraged by him to draw, she filled sketchbooks throughout her childhood and teens, with drawings mostly of animals, and especially of horses, her passion.

After studying art for three years and attaining a Diploma in Fine Art at the Claremont School of Art, in Perth, Western Australia in 1978, she headed north to the Kimberley , W.A., and on to Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory. In the north of Australia she discovered all the subjects of her dreams; wetlands, rivers and billabongs full of crocodiles, waterbirds and wildlife, and a vast and changing wild landscape.
