Rayleen Pula Price, an artist from Utopia, was born circa 1969. Utopia, situated approximately 350 kilometres northeast of Alice Springs, is renowned for being home to some of the most prominent figures in Aboriginal art, including Betty Mbitjana, Abie Loy Kemarre, Barbara Weir, Gloria Petyarre, Anna Price Pitjara, the late Minnie Pwerle, Kudditji Kngwarreye, and Kathleen Petyarre, among others.

Rayleen shares familial ties with the distinguished Anna Price Pitjara and Delvine Petyarre, with their artistic expressions reflecting notable similarities due to their shared heritage. Notably, Margaret Price is Rayleen's mother. Traditionally, each Aboriginal artist typically adheres to a unique stylistic approach to their subjects; thus, Margaret maintains her distinct style, which she consistently employs without encroaching upon Rayleen's artistic expression, and vice versa.

Rayleen's artwork vividly represents her visions of bush seeds and bush medicine leaves, which are integral components of the staple foods and medicinal practices utilised by the women of Utopia.

The intricacy of Rayleen's work has garnered significant demand throughout Australia, and as she continues to follow in the esteemed footsteps of Anna Petyarre, it is anticipated that her artwork will soon achieve international recognition.

Rayleen Price's creations have been featured at auction on numerous occasions.

About the painting

For Aboriginal people, country does not just mean the creeks, rock outcrops, hills, and waterholes; it encompasses the entire landscape. Country includes all living things. It incorporates people, plants, and animals. It embraces the seasons, stories, and creation spirits. country is both a place of belonging and a way of believing.

Through our travels, we have sustained and celebrated our knowledge of our country. It is an experience vividly expressed in our traditional songs, stories, dance, and art. The cultures encompass a wide range of responses to history and homeland. And they include traditions both
old and new.

Aboriginal cultures have many faces and a multitude of voices. Every stretch of the country possesses its own unique creation stories, sacred places, languages, ceremonies, totems, art, clan groupings, and laws. There are desert people like us as well as saltwater people, people of the stone country, and people of the islands. Many people live in town but still call these places home.

For all this phenomenal diversity, there remain similarities. Among different clan groups, there are mutual responsibilities and common values. These links have been maintained through generations of working together on trade routes, ceremonial sites, and the dreaming tracks that cross borders - and the continent itself.

One of the Best Watch for the Price
Color: Black/Gray
Second time purchase of this model. The strap on the first one broke after 5 years and the original battery is still in it. Just found out that you can purchase replacement swap from Timex direct or through retail stores like Walmart and Target. The replacement straps are about $12. I mentioned this because as other reviewer of this watch or similar mode, the major con is the strap seems to break after several years. The other con of this watch is that the “start/split” button which is used to change time zone is on the face of the watch of the watch. It is slightly raised, so it is easy to accidently change time zone when sleeping. This watch looks good, very rugged, have taken it out many times snorkeling and shows no indication of water leakage. The oversize display is easy to read. The indigo light makes the watch easy to read at night and the night feature when turn on, will auto-light the display when any button is pressed. I travel a lot and really like the three time zones. Another hidden feature not mentioned by others is the custom menu feature. You can selectively pick the features you want to use and reduce the number of features you have to cycle through. This is an excellent everyday watch, very rugged, and accurate. On the previous one, I didn’t have to reset the time at all during the 5 years of use. The number for Timex Support is: If you can't find your strap, you can also order one by calling our Customer Service Department at 1-888-727-2931. I also had the traditional size display before discovering the oversize mode. The oversize is a lot easier to read.

Works great, rugged, and worth the money!
Color: Black/Gray
Just purchased my second of this watch as a replacement. The first lasted about four years of abuse before the straps started to crumble. No battery or other issues. It had survived Afghanistan, numerous field exercises, mud, sweat, rain, wind, etc. and was well worth the $35 I spent on it. It is easy to adjust the time and has a handy 2nd time feature if you're between two time zones frequently or jut want to know the time back home. Everything else is what one would expect from the Ironman series. Lightweight, good backlight (indiglo), not obnoxiously large, rugged, good chrono/timers/alarms.

Good Watch
Color: Black/Gray
I have an old 30 lap Ironman. This one is larger than my previous one and has more features. It took me a little while to fully figure out how the new "occasion" feature works, but I can honestly say that I will probably never use that feature. This is a good watch, but the old one is easier to read at an angle. I did not measure the angle that the other segments become visible enough to interfere with viewing the time, but I do know that it is less than my old one. I have to twist my wrist a little more to view the time than I did with the old one. My old one is over 10 years old and still keeps excellent time. I replaced the strap and battery a couple times. The plastic part on top of it broke off when I dropped it at the airport about a year ago. Eventually the whole top fell off. I glued a plastic piece on to replace the "start/split" button. The wife decided that my repair was too ugly to wear in public. I still wear the old one around the house just to bother her! Hopefully this new one will last as long. I may have to get a Velcro strap for this one. The plastic one looks better, but the Velcro type is more comfortable.

Good watch that can take a beating
Color: Black/Gray
I have owned a Timex IronMan watch for almost 2 decades now and this will only be the 4th one I’ve bought. I wear it every day, and I rarely take it off except when I shower, but that is just because I want to wash my wrist. Between my time in the military, working on cars, swimming, and wildland firefighting I have never had one break on me. I’ve never even had a battery actually die. Every time I’ve replaced a watch is because the backlight eventually got so faint I couldn’t read the time in the dark. I have had the pin that holds the clasp on come off once, but that was when I had my hand jammed down in an engine trying to remove a part and the watch got caught because I didn’t take it off first. The only thing I am not crazy about is the size of this watch. Being a creature of habit, I normally get the smaller Ironman, but I thought I’d try something different and I guess it will just take some getting used to. Overall I am very pleased with this watch.

Good watch
Color: Black/Gray
I've had other Timex watches like this one and they have always been reliable and easy to use. I want a watch that has a large face and can be seen when I'm exercising or in low light. I use the timer feature often and it is great. I'm very pleased with this watch. I know it's a men's watch but I'd love to see more Timex watches for women with large faces, similar features and bolder colors.
