Description :

The image displays three hand-painted boomerangs, each featuring unique designs of Australian wildlife. The top boomerang depicts a kangaroo, characterized by its powerful hind legs and long tail, set against a background of warm earth tones and intricate dot patterns. The middle boomerang showcases two baby kangaroos, or joey, identifiable by its smaller size and protective posture near an adult kangaroo silhouette. This boomerang uses cooler hues with white dot accents to highlight the figures. The bottom boomerang features a platypus, recognizable by its distinctive duck-bill-like snout and webbed feet, with a combination of warm and cool colors and detailed dot work emphasizing its contours.

These boomerangs are typically crafted from various types of wood native to Australia, such as eucalyptus or acacia. They are meticulously hand-painted to showcase elements of Indigenous Australian culture. Historically, boomerangs have been used by Aboriginal Australians for hunting, sport, and ceremonial purposes. The designs often convey cultural stories or significant symbols from the artist’s heritage.

Measurement: 14” - 19.75"
