Mint and Mustard Puli Puli Indigenous Screen Print and Leather cross-body bag

A lovingly handcrafted and fun cross-body bag made with a beautiful original screen-print by Indigenous artist Keturah Zimran from Ikuntji Artists (hand printed by Publisher Textiles) and a soft leather back with top-stitched detail.  

The abstract shapes depict the natural rock formations (puli) found in and around Haasts Bluff. The mint and mustard print is a wonderful colour combination!      Here's a piece of her story:

"When I was little I would watch my grandmother and mother paint. It was when I was young I realised I wanted to paint. I started painting in 2005 and my brother paints as well. He paints waru, bush fire Dreaming.
I paint about the sand hills my mother also painted about the sand hills and the Napaltjarri sisters.
I have my own family now. I have seven children. I have two granddaughters and two grandsons. My husband is also a painter. He paints about his grandfather’s country: Lake Mackay.
I like to paint; painting helps me forget my troubles. I paint every day.
My Grandmother used to say to me when I was younger: “One day you will paint.”
