About Rosemary 

Rosemary Bird Petyarre was born in the early 1950s at Atneltye, or Boundary Bore, on Utopia Station in the Northern Territory, located 270km northeast of Alice Springs. She is the niece of the famous Aboriginal artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye, sister of Jeannie Petyarre, and half-sister of artists Greeny Purvis Petyarre and Evelyn Pultara. She is also a skin sister to other well-known artists, including Gloria Petyarre, Kathleen Petyarre, and Ada Bird Petyarre.

Rosemary Petyarre has painting in her blood. Rosemary was one of a group of Anmatyerre women at the forefront of the Aboriginal art movement at Utopia. Like many women artists there, Rosemary Petyarre originally produced batik works, eventually moving to painting after encouragement from her aunt, Emily Kame Kngwarreye.

As a bush woman, Rosemary Petyarre is familiar with her land and its abundant bush tucker species, medicinal plants, and native fauna. She and her sister Jeannie Petyarre inherited these stories, along with essential women’s stories, from her ancestors via her aunt Emily, and they form the basis of her paintings. The subject of many of Rosemary Petyarre’s paintings is a representation of leaves collected around her country and used for various medicinal purposes. In particular, she returns 3and to Bush Yam Leaves and Bush Medicine, depicting these themes with flowing representations of the leaves. Typical of the Utopia artists, Rosemary Petyarre rejoices in the use of colour.

Today, Rosemary Petyarre divides her time between Utopia and Alice Springs. She is a highly talented artist among the famous names of Aboriginal art who reside and work at Utopia Homelands. Her paintings have been acquired by collectors worldwide. Aboriginal art status: Established artist.

Never read it.
Got it for my son. He apparently likes it. I cannot believe I have to write a specific number of words for a review. Geesh.

Best Book About Comic Book Guy EVER
Format: Hardcover
You love the Simpsons! You love Comic Book Guy! And, well, to gain the best possible enjoyment of this book, you also love, or at least have a passing knowledge of, movies, science-fiction, pro wrestling (Rob Van Dam in ECW makes a cameo!), comics, video games, Dungeons & Dragons, and just general geek culture. And if you do, you'll LOVE this book. Sure, it seems to be the same gags just updated every few pages... but what are you expecting, Pride and Prejudice? It's an illustrated book, it has Simpsons-esque humor, and it's an enjoyable read. Highly recommended.
