Artwork Description

Acrylic Paint on canvas

Signed with a certificate of authenticity.

This painting represents the land east of Tjukurla called 'Kurlkurta'. It is a Tjukurpa story about a woman who was digging in the rockholes there. While digging she fell into the rockhole, went through the ground and came out through another rockhole. When she came out the other side she saw two big water snakes, 'Wanabi', big snakes from the Dreamtime. The woman squeezed her breastmilk into the rockhole to appease the giant snake and so she escaped.

Please note that this artwork comes unstretched and requires stretching. A certificate of authenticity can be provided upon request.

“Buying art on Bluethumb is a failsafe experience. I have bought several pieces, they have arrived quickly and true to the pictures/description. As can occasionally happen when transporting a fragile item, one piece arrived with broken glass and Bluethumb did not hesitate to offer to pay for replacement. Communication with artists during transactions has been quick and helpful. ”

“I had contacted Alicia Rogerson (via bluethumb.com.au) because she had done a painting that I liked called "Wonderful Inspiration" - which was of a beautiful young woman with a very inspirational message written into the artwork. I work as a Kinesiologist and I love having art in my clinic room. I contacted Alicia stating that if she could do a matching image with a young male, I would buy "Wonderful Inspiration" and commission her for its twin. Alicia was great at communicating all through the process. Sending me preliminary designs. And thankfully she was understanding when my (mild) OCD kicked in around dimensions. I am really happy with the final design and cannot wait to get it framed and hung up in my clinic room”
