Freda Price Pitjara

Freda Price Pitjara is a Utopian woman who is daughter to well-known artist, Anna Price Pitjara. Utopia is located approximately 300km Northeast of Alice Springs and is an area that is abundant with the Bush Yam.

She was taught to paint at a young age, watching and learning from her mother. Like her mother, she uses intricate pin dotting to create a beautiful flowing movement in her paintings.

This painting by Freda depicts a topographical view of the sand hills (Tali Tali) in her country north-east of Alice Springs. By using small white dots on black linen, she creates a sense of depth and movement of the sand hills.

Freda is one of the most talented upcoming artists from the Utopia region and her paintings have gained a strong following within a very short space of time.
