Details
Gullawan, also known as Roque Lee, was born in Darwin and belongs to a highly respected family with 6 brothers and 7 sisters. Roque was educated in Darwin and began his crafting skills at an early age. Roque was taught by his uncles to make traditional spears at an early age. He also learnt the skill of crafting woomeras and didgeridoos but his painting skills were self taught and only developed over the last 10 years after leaving his vocation as a Parks and Wildlife ranger at Kakadu.

Roque paints from the environment where he lives in conjunction with depicting the knowledge and stories passed on to him from his mother. Roque's totems are Rainbow Serpent, mud crab, tiger shark and goanna.

Roque's works can be seen on a number of unusual mediums including sawfish bills, bone, feather and vinyl briefcases. His skill enables him to tackle the most difficult of mediums with precision and ease. Roque now resides in Darwin with his wife and is continuing to pass on his knowledge of his culture to his son.
