This is a support page for Paddy Bedford. For his biography, painting style, subjects and place within East Kimberley art, see the main Paddy Bedford artist page.

Paddy Bedford is one of the most sought-after Aboriginal artists of the contemporary era, with exceptional works held in major public collections and regularly appearing in Australia’s leading Indigenous art auctions. His finest paintings from the early 2000s are regarded as masterpieces of East Kimberley art, combining profound Gija cultural knowledge with a highly original minimalist visual language that transformed contemporary Aboriginal painting.

For a comprehansive Biography and discussion on paintings style please feel free to read Paddy Bedford: Subtle Power

According to the Art Sales Digest database, auction records for Paddy Nyunkuny Bedford begin in 2000. Since then, 211 works have been offered at public auction, with 156 selling, representing a healthy 74% clearance rate. His current auction record is $260,000 AUD, achieved by Mendoowoorrji – Medicine Pocket (2005)

The value of a Paddy Bedford painting depends on several factors, including date, size, subject, provenance, exhibition history and publication. Large linen paintings from his mature period (2003–2006), particularly works illustrated in the Museum of Contemporary Art catalogue or exhibited internationally, consistently command the strongest prices regularly achieving over $50,000. Smaller composition boards and gouache studies remain highly collectable and provide an accessible entry point into the market, while works with important provenance from collections such as the Laverty, Sherman or Mora collections often attract significant buyer interest.

If you own a painting by Paddy Bedford and would like to know its current market value or are considering selling, feel free to send clear photographs of the front and back, the dimensions and any provenance or certificates. I am always happy to provide an informal assessment.
