‘Stories worth Pearls & Diamonds’ was created in 2018. The second piece in a series of paintings of beautiful Indigenous Australian children.
A couple of trips to Kalumburu in the early 90's left a deep impression on my heart and spirit and connection with the land and people. I wanted to convey through this portrait of a beautiful young indigenous girl, how important their rich, ancient culture and belief system is…to all of us. They are a wellspring of knowledge and wisdom that connects us to the non visible beauty of this land and ancient past that knows not, the limits of time as we know it. I believe deeply, that Indigenous Australians offer the key to saving nature and teaching us how to honour and live with it and how to connect with 'All' that is. If we could be privileged enough to hear and know their stories, we would give up all our Pearls and Diamonds in exchange for this gift of deeper living.
This piece is finished on a 100% Cotton canvas with high quality Acrylic paint, as well as sealed with a high quality varnish.
