Caroline Jimmy is a Gurindji artist and member of Karungkarni Art Centre in Kalkarindji in the northern Tanami Desert / Victoria River region of the Northern Territory. Caroline started painting when she was twelve years old by watching her mother and father painting. She learned her Dreaming stories from them both. Caroline also enjoys painting bush food. Her father used to make boomerang, shields, coolamon and Caroline used to help make them and learn the skills.
Her Uncle Ronnie (Biddy’s oldest brother) gave her the Ngapa Dreaming, Ronnie learned them from his grandfather and uncle when he was a young boy. He was told the stories which he kept in his mind. Uncle Ronnie told Caroline to learn proper Gurindji language and to only do the right Dreaming.
