Irrultja Station in the Utopia Region.
What occurred from that first workshop was a huge unleashing of artistic talent. The sisters continued to paint their Awelye Atnwengerrp Dreaming as they had done for decades on women's bodies during ceremonies in their country of Atnwengerrp but were now using colourful acrylic paint on canvas. The works produced were stunning and highly original works.
Although all the sisters painted the same Dreaming story, they developed their own unique style. Galya's work is characterised by a first layer of Awelye (body painting) which she then paints over with fine dotting. The effect is mysterious and moving.
Like her sisters, Galya's work has been widely exhibited throughout Australia and in international Galleries and is highly sought after.
