Bessie Purvis Petyarre commenced her painting career in 2005. Her mother, the late Polly Ngale, was one of the most esteemed and sought-after artists in Utopia. Bessie has received support and learned about her culture and the technique of Dreamtime depiction from her mother and aunts.

Her "Bush Plum Dreaming" paintings are inspired by three distinguished figures: her father-in-law, Kubbitji Kngwarreye, Aunty Emily Kame Kngwarreye, and her mother, Polly. These works depict her homeland, Alhalkere, and all that it encompasses.  Her Dreamings originate from both her parents, with her learning the Antwelarr and Kame Dreamtime stories from her father, and the Anwekety Dreaming from her mother.

 The Antwerre and Kame Dreamtime stories are particularly significant to Bessie’s homeland. " Antwelarr " pertains to the plant, and " Kame " refers to the seed. These themes are most frequently represented in Bessie's paintings, which also feature women's ceremonies that are continually performed to honour the spirit of the Bush Plum and to ensure its ongoing productivity.

About the Painting

The Bush Plum is a vital part of the narrative of this region and serves as a major food source gathered by women. The women collect as much as possible, given that the fruit is only harvestable for several weeks each year. 

Bessie employs a topographical technique to illustrate the growth patterns of the Bush Plum, building layers of paint through dotting, smearing, and varied brushstrokes. This method allows her to visually celebrate the seasonal variations and cultural importance of the Bush Plum.

Very comfortable and looks great
This bracelet is so pretty. The charms look sweet and delicate. The shell inlay looks expensive. It’s really comfortable to wear this bracelet. I’ve kept it on for weeks without removing it and I really don’t even notice it. It hasn’t tarnished at all and I wear this in the shower and to bed. It’s my current favorite “cheap” jewelry piece. It certainly doesn’t look cheap at all though. Only cheap in price for the product that you get. It fits great. It’s totally giving me VCA vibes. I’m really happy with this piece.

These are a good choice
Color: Black-2 Set
These are great. They are made well, look nice and are easy to move when I’m dusting. I use these to keep perfumes, lotions and vitamins organized atop my dresser. The velvety compartments are a well sized and the layout is conducive to storing the kind of objects women or men typically store atop a dresser. I find these bins quite functional. I feel like these were a good value. They weren’t the cheapest and they weren’t the most expensive. They look nice and feel high quality enough.

Nice and works great in my nightstand
Color: Beige
Smaller than I expected, but good quality and looks nice in my nightstand drawer. It will keep things from rolling around. Seems sturdy and I like the pinkish undertone to the beige.

Great end table organizer, Style, size, cost
Color: Brown-2 Set
Good size, very useful tray. The large compartments are laid out well. Small areas good to hold a watch, change, lip balm, etc. Affordable price and made well, looks more expensive. Keeps "stuff" neat and clean.
