About Artist:
Lilly Campbell Napangardi was born in 1970 and is from the Warlpiri tribe. She was originally from Kintore but currently lives in Alice Springs, Northern Territory.
Lilly comes from a family of artists. Her mother is Maisey Campbell Napaltjarri and her father was the respected Pintupi lawman and renowned artist, Barney Campbell Tjakamarra (deceased 2006).
Lilly often paints the Hail Storm Dreaming. This is depicted by rows of dots across the canvas which range from large to small and give the impression of hail falling from the sky. As the Central Desert is so dry, hail is a rare occurrence and is considered quite special when it does occur.
