Sally Tjimpuna Butler

Sally Butler (b.1963) is the daughter of Katjarra Butler. She has two sons, Patrick and Winston. Sally spends most of her time at Tjukurla Community although she has connections in Darwin and Batchelor. Sally’s paintings usually depict the women out collecting food around the Tjukurla area.

Sally has a vibrant energy which is channelled into her use of colour and form. Her emergent style echoes her mother's stories and the knowledge she has of the significant sites around her home country in the western desert.
