One of the original 'Lockhart River Gang' of young artists who started their community art centre, Silas Hobson says that most of his paintings are about people coming together:

"White people, black people, all kinds of people and even spirit people. Most of my works are about coming together, listening and yarning amongst each other, teaching, learning about each other, their way and our way and their culture and our culture 'I enjoy my art and I am happy that my art can go to places and homes where I know that I too have been welcomed through arts."
