Judy Watson Napangardi
Judy Watson was born at Yarungkanji around 1935, at the time when many Central and Western Desert peoples were living a traditional nomadic life. Judy was taught painting by her elder sister, Maggie Napangardi Watson. Though a very tiny woman Judy has had ten children, two of whom she has outlived. She is a woman of incredible energy which is transmitted to her work through her dynamic use of colour, and energetic 'dragged dotting' style. Judy Watson Napangardi was included in the Australian Art Collector’s list of the 50 Most Collectable Artists in 2007, and again in the magazine's January 2009 edition.
She is now arguably the most significant living female Indigenous artist in Australia.
