This is a story of the five clans/shields of the Gunnai Kurnai people. These five clans are spread all over, from the Snowy Rivers through to Lakes Entrance, Lake Tyres, Bairnsdale, Gippsland and past Mirboo to Port Albert and Wilsons Promontory. The five clans are: Brataualung, Brayakaulung, Brabralung, Tatungalung and Krauatungalung.

I was struggling to create a peaceful happy feeling until I started painting. These paintings are the first few I've ever done and I got a lot of positive feedback making a feeling of incredible happiness.

This painting is about a very strong gonna. He had a very tough upbringing, so he had to grow up and get strong at a very young age. You could say he was a man at the young age of 12. What he has been through as a kid, no man or woman could imagine but how he turned out after his hardship/upbringing is all worth it. He is very nice and kind to everyone, respectful, well mannered, his family are his life as well as his culture. Old school morals are rare these days and always remember hardship and hard times will only make you stronger in every way.

This painting represents me as the goanna, going back home to freedom, reconnecting with my dad, mum, brother and sister and the rest of family, and going back to Country.
