Katie Cox


Aboriginal Artist Katie Cox

Katie was born at Texas Downs Station and was fortunate to have an education at Beagle Bay.  She relocated to Warmun after her schooling and began teaching the children on the Community – an occupation which she is still involved with today.

Katie comes from a family of talented artists – her aunts Lena Nyadbi and Goody Barrett introduced her to painting, and she was encouraged by her brother, International Artist Churchill Cann, and other established artists.  Her husband is renowned artist, Tommy Carroll.

Katie not only has a style of her own which is varied, bold and yet often whimsical (as in her “Devil Dog” work), but she is meticulous in method and fastidious in detail.  Her paintings are invariably accompanied by a Ngarrangkarni (Dreamtime) story.

She has participated in many Exhibitions, collected by the National Gallery of Australia and Parliament House Collection - most definitely a collectable artist for the investor or those who enjoy a beautiful piece of art on their wall.

    Nyree, VIC

    I received Deanne Peters's work today in the post.  
    This is the first ever piece of art that I have bought let alone through the Internet.  
    I love it.  I appreciated the opportunity to buy a piece that I work afford within my
    budget and I think it is a great idea to produce smaller pieces.  
    Now I just have to start saving for another.    
    Amanda, Ireland

    Thanks so much. Ms Peter's work is absolutely beautiful.
    I must stop looking at the website.
    I'll run out of wall space!

    Thank you so much.  I’m looking forward to receive Helen’s Water Dreaming.
    I like the drawing and the colours a lot.  Christopher Churchill’s Desert Nights is my favourite picture.
    Often I pass by, have a look at it and smile. It is a very special picture for me.

    We recently purchased “Wild
    Passionfruit and Tomato” by Margaret
    Davis Kemarre during our visit to
    your gallery in Kununurra. It was
    delivered to our home in Sydney
    last week. We just wanted to let you
    know it had arrived safely and that
    we are very happy with our purchase.  
    Thank you for your assistance.

    Give her my thanks and her willingness
    to share her talent and vision.

    The most beautiful Kudditji painting has arrived this morning, it is so magnificent.
    It took my breath away!! Thank you very much.
    Karen, NSW

    I received my beautiful Bush Leaves canvas by Jeannie Petyarre last week.
    I bought it on a very rushed visit to Kununurra enroute from Warmun to Darwin.
    The minute I saw it I knew it was what I had been looking for.
    It is at the framers now for stretching onto a frame. I can not wait to hang it in my home.
    Thank you so much for getting it to me in such good condition.
    I'm so glad I popped into your gallery for what I said would be a "quick walk through.
    Luckily my friend in Warmun had said "make sure you go to Artlandish".
    Having had the opportunity to spend time in an indigenous community
    I feel blessed to have such a beautiful artwork.
    Please place me on your mailing list.
    Best wishes
    Sue
