Ngariin Bilba by Merinda Kelly

Ngariin Bilba by Merinda Kelly Yawayi & welcome! I am a proud Dhanggati/Worimi woman, exploring and growing on my artistic journey. Yawayi!!

I am a very proud Dhanggati and Worimi woman born on Awabakal land and now based on Wiradjuri Country. I started my journey as an Indigenous artist during the pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns while I was based on Ngunnawal Country. Since 2020, my skills and confidence as an artist have grown and I now consider it a passion.

'Ngariin Bilba' is my mob language and means 'Eldest Sister Paintin

g'. I am the oldest of seven and being a sister is a massive part of my identity. I incorporated this into my art logo, it depicts myself and my brother and sisters sitting around a campfire.

Yawayi everyone!

It's been a minute.

Since I was last active on my page, a few exciting things have happened!

I had a stall at my very first market. I sold a few small pieces and not as much as I'd have hoped but it was a great experience.

I've launched an online store which I'm stoked about. I'd love if you checked it out and let me know what you think. It's desktop and mobile friendly AND you can purchase the pieces I have online with Afterpay or reach out to me about a commission. :)
