Lena Willalang

Born in Port Hedland, Lena went to school in Strelley, and moved to Warralong where she stayed for a long time. “I was never really interested in painting before I started in 2010,” she says. “They asked me in Warralong if I wanted to paint and I said, ‘yeah, I’ll give it a try’. I used to travel between South Hedland and Warralong and then moved to Hedland in 2010.” Lena started painting with Spinifex Hill Artists in 2010. “I enjoy painting here,” she says.
