Albert Namatjira started painting when he was a child being raised in the Lutheran mission school, Hermannsburg, near Alice Springs. This was when he started painting in a non-traditional manner, adopting the westernised form, but with his own unique style.

Although his first exhibition was not until 1938, he started painting as a child.
