“Morning Song” is a vibrant celebration of culture, land, and spirit, capturing the iconic call of the kookaburra as a symbol of new beginnings and ancestral presence. The proud kookaburra, perched amidst a lush landscape teeming with life, texture, and energy.

Its feathers, painted in layers of earth tones and deep blues, reflect both strength and serenity — the bird’s song carrying the stories of country into the dawn.

To the left of the composition, a central meeting place radiates with warm ochres, reds, and yellows, symbolising connection, unity, and the heartbeat of community. Encircling this space are the kin and mob of the community,

The dotted pathways representing the journey lines of ancestors and the continual flow of knowledge between people and place.

Botanical forms and textured dot work reflect native flora and seasonal rhythms, while the sweeping movement through the background evokes smoke trails, dreaming tracks, and the spirits that walk with us. “Morning Song” invites you to pause and listen.
