About artist
Lily Kelly Napangardi (Napangati) was born in approximately 1948 at Haasts Bluff in Central Australia. Lily Kelly is a Luritja and Warlpiri speaker and a highly distinguished Aboriginal artist. Lily grew up living in the bush until in the 1960\'s where as a young girl her family moved to the settlement of Papunya, several hours from Alice Springs in Central Australia. As an adult she then later moved to Watiyawanu (Mount Liebig) approximately 3 hours west of Alice Springs.

She is a highly respected senior law woman in her community and the custodian over the Women\'s Dreaming stories associated with her traditional country around Kunajarrayi (Mount Nicker). Lily began painting in 1986 and worked closely with Papunya Tula Artists for several years. Her paintings are very innovative interpretations of her country. She later then worked closely with Watiyawanu Artists of Yamunturrngu.

In 2006 she was named as one of Australia\'s 50 most collectable artists by the Australia Art Collector Magazine which further cemented her as one of Australia\'s most sought after and collectable Aboriginal artists. The Australian Indigenous Art Market has her rated as the 77th most collectable aboriginal artist of all time.

Lily\'s paintings portray the depiction of the \"Tali\" (sand hills) located near her homelands. The microscopic dots show the impact of the rain and the wind as it moves across the countryside. This story was passed to her by her father and the sand hills (Tali) are a site of significance for the artist and her family
