Mandy Draper, the talent behind Deadly Dot Pots, is a proud Aboriginal Darug woman from the Cabrogal Clan. She's all about creating stunning hand-painted ceramic pots, homewares, and more - with each piece telling its own special story.

But for Mandy, it's not just about making pretty things. She's on a mission to shine a light on mental health, showing how art can really make a difference in people's lives. Her own journey with art as a way to boost well-being is a big part of what drives her.

Mandy's keen to spread the word about mental health, especially in Indigenous communities. She encourages everyone to find something that helps them feel good – for her, it's picking up a paintbrush.
