Dolly is the sister of the late well-known artist Greeny Purvis Petyarre. Her other siblings, Jeannie Long and Gloria Mills are also artists. 


Like many Utopian artists in the 1980s they created Batik on silk which are part of the Robert Holmes a Court Collection. She now paints with acrylic on canvas. 
 

This painting is the dreaming of the Yam Flower and the changing colours during the seasons. The Yam is widely celebrated, as it was an important food source for the people of this area. 

Dolly’s paintings have been exhibited Nationally and Internationally. 

This painting was purchased directly from Dolly and a gallery certificate of authenticity will be provided with the sale.
