Lennie was the daughter of Oscar Namatjira and the granddaughter of Albert. She grew up in Hermannsburg, where she learned to paint in the style of her father and grandfather. Lennie was also known by her married name, 'Lankin,' and sometimes spelled her name as 'Lenie.'
This landscape by Lennie reflects the colour and formation of the many ranges, hills, gorges and flora that are found in her country, Ntaria (Hermannsburg), West of Alice Springs in Central Australia. This country truly has the blue and purple colours of the ranges in the distance, the rich colour in the sand and an amazing contrast when the plentiful flora is in bloom.
