"To Heal" This painting captures a story on Kalkadoon Country (Kalkatungu Muu) and a journey of healing; or to get well (Yapatjarra).
This story is one of finding strength, building resilience and healing on Country.

Our Ancestors have walked before us and provided us with important lessons of how to live on and honour our strong connection to Country, how to walk with dignity and how to sit with Country to heal our spirits. We stand on the shoulders of our Ancestors; they walk with us and guide us always.
Country provides us with peace, energy and direction. It’s energy, vitality and unwavering sacredness remains a perpetual source of our spiritual sustenance and connection to culture.

A vibrant palette of colours has been chosen for this painting to capture and bring-to-life the sheer beauty and energy of Country; it’s waterways, diverse vegetation and animals, skies, valleys and mountains. Country can soothe and heal one’s spirit by finding space to immerse yourself in nature and find your inner peace through it’s stillness and healing energies.
