Love Birds

Anne Nunn is Nyungul woman. Her paintings depict cultural, historic and contemporary stories from her Country, the Helensvale and Shipton’s Flat area in Far North Queensland. “My painting depicts the plants and animals that live and grow around my bubu (country).

I love going out bush and am especially inspired by the wetland dikal (birds) like the kubal (brolga) that live in the walngka (swamp grasses) and kababina (water lilies)”.

During mating season the kubal dance to win a wife. My painting shows a pair of kubal in love.
