Kangaroos called Wambine by the Wiradjuri speaking tribe of central west New South Whales Australia, Aboriginal tribes invented ways of farming kangaroo in woodland areas, burning off grass clearings to grow new patches of grass to attract Wambine into natural hedged enclosures. The Wambine would be hinder by the natural hedge fleeing from hunter surrounding the clearing, this was an easier method for hunters and in some places, nets were stretch between trees. This composition is in memorial of the Wiradjuri cultural hunting method’s that have been force off the land by modern farming from Europeans invading their lands. Wiradjuri where very effective hunters with spears, boomerangs, stone axes, nets, canoes, and resins made from spinifex seed, many types of nets, baskets, ropes, and mats made from weaving of twines. Bush medicines and food was all available as was clean drinking water. This painting contains the messages of the knowledge and wisdom of seasonally nomadic bush life of the Wiradjuri.

A black line with yellow dots indicating a path to water hole. Single tracks of a Kangaroo approaching to water hole from adjacent direction of the walking path to water hole. Image description: The Wiradjuri Googar in depiction is largely spread across the full length of the painting, it dose over exaggerates a goanna flexibility is distorted and compressed into the boarders of the artworks around tribe sites. This dose suggest the Googar is under some positional pressures, symbolizes other outward events are not always as we like but are endurable. The double layer dot technic of a frantic spirited composition has a hypnotic bright color that serves as a warning signal subliminally to the viewer. The depiction of dots appearance size and generosity of paint in using is a patient story, that one has shown Yindyermarra sufficiently to accumulate an arrangement of dots in vibrant detail.       This artwork is painted on pre-primed canvas, large quantity of double layers of dots, made from acrylic paint and sealed with matt Jo Sonja's, Polyurethane water-based finish. The dot is small and tightly fitting and are blended tones light to dark in some areas across the artwork.
