The article pictures his life through oral history, photographs and some of his many artworks in the form of rock paintings, beeswax figures and bark paintings. It touches on how Nayombolmi and his father used rock art as an educational medium in the intergenerational transmission of traditional lore and law. Nayombolmi made close to 800 rock art figures, justly earning him the epithet ‘the most prolific known rock art artist in the world’.en© Australian Rock Art Research Association, 2022Nayombolmi; Biography; Rock art artist; Kakadu; Anbangbang; AustraliaJournal article2022-09-21622209May, S.
