Wakirlpirri Jukurrpa Ochre Canvas Art Print - This motif of this visually striking Aboriginal artwork represents the dogwood tree, featuring dark, stretching branches accentuated by hundreds of lines in a warm yellow colour palette.
This Aboriginal artwork depicts the ‘wakirlpirri’ (dogwood tree), a very useful tree for Japanangka men and Napanangka women. The Dreaming travels from Jarrarda-Jarrayi through to Mount Theo, west of Yuendumu in the Northern Territory.
The ‘wakirlpirri’ grows on the sides of creek beds, offering seeds that can be eaten raw or cooked, or dried and boiled to create a sweet drink called ‘yinjirrpi’. The wood is used for ‘karli’ (boomerangs) and dancing boards, and is also excellent for burning on the fire as the wakirlpirri wood cannot be extinguished by rain.

- The frame moulding is only 1cm wide but when added to the gap and multiplied by 2 adds about 3cm to the height & width of the stretched canvas
- As the product is hand made, it is 5cm larger than the stretched version to allow for variances between products which will occur from time to time

Dogwood in autumn shades
Artist Liddy Napanangka Walker applies thousands of dots to form linear movement in autumnal shades as a tribute to the ‘wakirlpirri' (dogwood tree), a very important tree for Japanangka men and Napanangka women.
Remains taut over time
Stretched or framed using solid timber, the poly-cotton canvas is constructed for longevity. Its strength minimises the risk of rips and prevents it from losing tautness over time.

Happy with the picture . Not hung properly yet. Would get another star if the colours were exactly like the pictures as they are less orange and bright and More subtle and pink show more than expected. Would also have got a black frame
