Cummergunga Sandhills
Regular price $185.00Cummeragunga is on the Victorian and New South Wales border and is located in the Barmah Forest near Moama. Once a relocated mission for the Yorta-Yorta people of Victoria until the Walk Off in 1939 – it is now the resting place for many of the ancestors who had lived their lives in a time of great struggle and change. This painting represents the early morning rise of the sun that lends hue to the sandy hills where my people rest. The white dots signify the tears of those who mourn.

- The process is digital, and the printer technology is inkjet. The inks are resin-encapsulated pigmented inks, which (when displayed or stored correctly) produce prints that can last up to 200 years before visible fading can be seen.
- Our high quality Giclee prints are the truest representation of the original work.
