Mowane - Kangaroo

This artwork depicts the Kangaroo and his long relationship to traditional Aboriginal life through the use of his skin for warmth and his protein rich meat as a part of the stable family diet.

Aboriginal tribal and clan groups each have a totem.  A totem is a natural object, plant or animal that is inherited by members of a clan or family as their emblem and the group is responsible for the stewardship of their totem.  My totem is the Wedge Tail Eagle.
