Ngunnawal Artists.
Ngunnawal art is an expression of our identity, culture, spirituality and relationships to Ngunnawal Country. Discover some of our local artists.
Lynnice Church
Lynnice Letty Church is named after her grandmother, Letty Little (nee Bell), a Ngunnawal woman who inspires Lynnice every time she paints. Lynnice’s connections extend across Ngunnawal, Wiradjuri and Kamilaroi Country on both her mother’s and father’s sides.
She places great importance on raising the profile of First Nations culture, values and beliefs through her work, ensuring that Ngunnawal stories are told with appropriateness and integrity.
