About Rosemary 

Rosemary Bird Petyarre was born in the early 1950s at Atneltye, or Boundary Bore, on Utopia Station in the Northern Territory, located 270km northeast of Alice Springs. Rosemary Petyarre is the niece of the famous Aboriginal artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye and sister of Jeannie Petyarre and half-sister of artists Greeny Purvis Petyarre and Evelyn Pultara. She is also a skin sister to other well-known artists including Gloria Petyarre, Kathleen Petyarre, and Ada Bird Petyarre.

It is clear that Rosemary Petyarre has painting in her blood. Rosemary was one of a group of Anmatyerre women at the forefront of the Aboriginal art movement at Utopia. Like many of the women artists there, Rosemary Petyarre originally produced batik works, eventually moving to painting after encouragement from her aunt Emily Kame Kngwarreye.

As a bush woman, Rosemary Petyarre is familiar with her land and its abundant species of bush tucker, medicinal plants, and native fauna. She and her sister Jeannie Petyarre inherited these stories, along with important women’s stories, from her ancestors via her aunt Emily and they form the basis of her paintings. The subject of many of Rosemary Petyarre’s paintings is a representation of leaves collected around her country and used for a variety of medicinal purposes. In particular, she returns again 3and again to Bush Yam Leaves and Bush Medicine, depicting these themes with flowing representations of the leaves. Typical of the Utopia artists, Rosemary Petyarre rejoices in the use of colour.

Today, Rosemary Petyarre spends her time between Utopia and Alice Springs. Rosemary Petyarre is a highly talented artist amongst the famous names of Aboriginal art who reside and work at Utopia Homelands. Rosemary Petyarre’s paintings have been acquired by collectors worldwide. Aboriginal art status – Established artist.

Non-greasy, smooth and smells great!
Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this lotion! Smells great! It is non-greasy and isn't heavy. I have it at my kitchen sink and it goes on so smooth after washing dishes. The moisture holds up well after applying.

So so
Scent: Lavender, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells amazing but the pump only dispenses such a small amount with each pump & it doesn’t retract quickly either.

Best as hand lotion. My keyboard is happy :-)
Scent: Lavender, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this lotion several times a day after handwashing. I think it's meant for frequent use as a hand lotion, therefore the giant size bottle and light, non-greasy, quick absorption formula. It does not leave a palpable film on my hands or on surfaces I touch, such as my phone, sunglasses, car doors, light switches, keyboard, remote control, etc. Also has a very matte finish. Great in hot weather when you don't want to feel coated. Not sufficiently emollient to be a body lotion. The lavender scent is close to that of a lavender plant, ie somewhat herbal.

Great for and Inexpensive Lotion
Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I wanted to get lotion that smells like BVLGARI Thé Blanc Eau De Toilette and all my research pointed to this; while it doesn't smell exactly like it...it comes close. The smell clean smell and not too strong, which I like...and the price is without a doubt much better than the real thing. So, for an inexpensive body lotion, I do recommend it, even if it's not an exact match for Bvlgari.
