This painting is signed and has a Certificate of Authenticity.

An Aboriginal creation story of the dugong is as follows:

A wallaby and a dugong knew each other. The wallaby did not like is flat tail and the dugong did not like is pointy tail. They swapped tails. The agreed to keep their swapped tails so that the wallaby was able to better hop through the bush and the dugong was able to move swiftly through the water. Both the wallaby and the dugong went away, found a wife, had a family and lived happily ever after.

This and all my artworks are signed and have a Certificate of Authenticity.

Aboriginal peoples in Australia are diverse in their views. Having said that, I am strongly opposed to the killing and eating of harmless dugongs.

Aboriginal women taught me to hunt, fish, and collect bush seeds.Bush seeds are traditionally collected by the women. Elders share knowledges with younger women.In my experience, and with a revival of aspects of Aboriginal culture, Elders teach younger women how to gather seeds, primarily  for jewellery-making, but also, for grinding to make flour. The ceremony of the process helps also to build relationships and knowledge.
