Small Wide Parrying Malgarr with Bunjil the Wedge Tailed Eagle Design.    

Traditionally malgarr ( shields ) were used with liyangayil 
( fighting clubs) for hand to hand combat with our enemies. 
I have replicated the shape ofthese shields in my artwork.

Barebin Buk the Long Necked Turtle is native to South East Australia.  They are often found in slow moving water, like the still waters of rivers and creeks such as the swamps or wetlands. 
He is a good indicator of the health of the wetlands and rivers.  He is a spirit animal for many mobs.

Hand crafted in Australia from Australian Red Cedar timber.

All artefacts come with an information card. 
The card has information about the artist, artefact and design. 
All designs are based on traditional symbols from
South East Australia.
