Since leaving school, Arthur has always had work. Past work includes Bathurst Island Housing and CDEP with the Shire Council. Since working with Ngaruwanajirri Arthur enjoys working each day doing carving. He takes great pride making up his own ochre colours and his paintwork is beautifully applied.
