Note: Daniel Goodwin was born in 1947 at Ernabella, which is a community located approximately 30kms south of the South Australian/Northern Territory border. He lived in Alice Springs also for many years and lived with the Namatjira family where he was taught how to paint by the sons of the famous Albert Namatjira. This is where his more European landscape style of painting came from. His work has featured in many exhibitions and he won "Best Aboriginal Painter of the Year" in New South Wales as well as winning in 1968 the "Adelaide Aboriginal Artist" award for his watercolour "Paterson Ranges in Western Australia". Dan's paintings have been sold to people from all around the world, with one large painting sold in 2001 to an overseas buyer for $125,000. An exhibition of Dan's works was held in Melbourne in 2004, opened by Governor General, Major Michael Jeffrey.
