Minyma Docker River, 16-387KA (A)

The young women are travelling around the country near Docker River with the older ladies. They are learning many things about where to collect special grasses and flowers and other types of bush tucker.

This painting needs to be framed. It’s also being sent direct from the artist at a remote art centre, Tjarlirli Art, in the top end. Please note there is only one mail plane a week that picks up the artworks. The tracking information is then received a week later when the mail plane returns so often the paintings are delivered before we receive the tracking information. Please expect a slightly longer wait for this very special artwork to arrive.
