Belle Leonard

Artist & Graphic Designer

Belle Leonard is an Aboriginal woman from the Hunter Valley. She is an artist and graphic designer and has enjoyed making art in all kinds of mediums her whole life. Her art varies from Aboriginal paintings and digital art, to oil paintings and hand embroidery. In her free time, she loves to make art for her friends and family, learn new creative skills, and play with her dogs.

Belle also loves athletics, music, and cute animals.

Kerri-Ann Taggart

Digital Artist

Kerri-Ann Taggart, most commonly known as Kez, is an Indigenous, Wonnarua digital artist from the Hunter Valley. She’s been creating art for as long as she can remember and most of her free time is dedicated to developing her illustration and drawing skills.

Kerri-Ann loves character design, films, spooky things and animals. You can follow all of her art shenanigans on Twitter @feardakez.

Michelle Earl Artist & Basket Weaver

As a proud Darkinjung woman with Wonnarua ties, Michelle has a personal connection to the Hunter Valley where she teaches and celebrates the traditional Aboriginal culture of the Communities.

“Our land, our people, our spiritual world is connected by our Elders passing their knowledge, skills and stories onto both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples so that it is not forgotten”.

Acknowledgement of Country

In the spirit of reconciliation, CleverPatch acknowledge the Wonnarua people as the traditional owners and custodians of the land upon which CleverPatch™ stands. We pay respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

When planning activities that draw on Indigenous culture, CleverPatch™ encourages you to connect with Aboriginal Communities in your local area. A great first step is to contact your local Aboriginal Land Council. Working together with the appropriate cultural owners helps ensure any creative or art-making experiences are undertaken with respect and care.
