Francis Dick's artistic journey began in 1985 when she started painting as a means of honouring her grandmother and brother, who had both recently passed. Since then, she has worked in many different art forms, including limited edition prints, carvings, and jewellery. Francis has worked with notable artists such as Bruce Alfred, Fah Ambers, and her cousin Beau Dick. She frequently speaks for various community organizations, women’s groups, and university classes. In addition to various gallery shows around the world, her work is permanently exhibited at the Ethnological Museum in Berlin.
