This is a story of Mob that walked from one end of this river to the other end, only stopping for food and water. The hands represent no hitting and violence, and for food and dancing only. The seven water holes represent where we got our water and the seven sisters.
Feathers Of My Family

This artwork represents my totem. Coming to jail has taught me more about my culture and the spiritual ways that we follow. When I paint, it takes me away from jail and that’s why I paint. My totem is my background, and I love who I am, Koori. Always Was Always Will Be.
