Boab - Dominic McLarty Cynthia Cox

Boab - Dominic McLarty Cynthia CoxCarved boab nut. Hand carved by Dominic McLarty. Boab nuts are synonymous with the Kimberley region. Many artists start their careers carving and painting boabs for sale as gifts, decorations and for sharing stories before moving onto painting on canvas and other art forms. Artefacts are made locally by artists and craftspeople, many of whom are Mangkaja artists. Keep an eye out for their paintings in our artwork section.

Timber boomerang

I was screaming

The eagle hunting for his dinner from above looking for smaller critters hiding in the shades

catch all kinds of fish at night

90 x 180cm

They handed me up on a 4WD Toyota still screaming on the back

From river side and around the Wankajunka side we collect them from the white snappy gum tree

But I proved the doctors wrong

Ngurti or timber coolamon
