SONGLINES : ABORIGINAL ART AND STORYTELLING
Not many people actually try to understand indigenous culture so I thought I would share this very short film about Australian Aboriginal art and storytelling. The Australian aboriginals survived thousands of years - through freezing temperatures and the the hottest of droughts. Their history is mind-blowing and I often shake my head in wonder! There are quite a few fabulous You Tube videos on this subject if you are interested.

We were all made by the same creator. We are all brothers and sisters wanting to be accepted, understood, respected and loved.
THE ARTS communicate feelings and opinions and allow the public to softly absorb ideas, knowledge and wisdom.
Through writings, and other forms of expression, stories are shared.
Future generations can learn from past successes and failings. The children of today have opportunity to grow and expand their potentiality and it is through Art and Communication, steeped in soul expression, that expansion can be realized.
Cheers and loads of love, cmw
