Peggy Griffiths

see the Artists prints




Peggy was born at Newry Station in the Northern Territory to Dianah Dingle and Frank Moore. She moved to Ivanhoe Station then on to Argyle Station at the age of 15. She settled in Kununurra with her husband, Alan, and began working at Waringarri Arts in 1985 carving and painting boab nuts and boomerangs. She now produces canvasses and limited edition prints often in a detailed figurative style for which she is noted. She also paints her grandfather’s country in order to keep the stories associated with the area alive. Peggy and Alan often paint together. They both make an important cultural contribution to their community through their performances and teaching of corroboree and traditional dances.

Secondary Market: Our 'Secondary Market Range' comprises one, sometimes two prints from an edition that is no longer in general distribution. They are hard to come by, secondary market prints that sold out years, and in some cases, decades ago. Many are rare, eminently collectable works by some of the most senior and acclaimed Aboriginal artists. Click here to see limited edition prints from our secondary market range.
