Thank you Juliet De Valter Art for this incredible piece. This beautiful artwork will be displayed in our newly renovated office to celebrate 20 years of believing in our first nations women. 🎨🩷

Saying goodbye to this special commission. 🤎

Created to celebrate 20 years of the First Nations Women’s Legal Service and the work they continue to do supporting our mob, advocating for justice, and standing alongside our communities.

It’s always an honour to create artwork that tells a story and becomes part of an organisation’s journey. Thank you for trusting me to mark such an important milestone. Congratulations on 20 years of making a difference — here’s to many more.
