Weaving On The Lake – Barmah

Memories are a connection to our past, present and future. Stories told by our elders and passed down, areas of significance where our families congregated and came together for camping, fishing or picnics and lovely sun, doing arts and crafts. This painting depicts life on the lake, sitting on the banks and enjoying the land and the day, weaving and being in the moment and teaching our children about our culture
