Portrait of Ernie Dingo ... the story

“I didn’t want to paint the ’national icon’ image. I have always had a deep respect for Ernie and the Aboriginal culture. It was truly an honour and privilege to paint such a remarkable man. There certainly is a lot more to him than meets the eye!”
Ernie himself has signed the painting along with placing his own handprint on it, which adds a uniqueness, as well as raising it’s value.
This painting is for sale with part proceeds going to the Cranio Facial Foundation.
