A pair of Australian Aboriginal paintings on eucalyptus bark painted using natural pigments to depict a large fish and a blizzard. The bodies composed of dramatic diagonal red, white and yellow cross hatched striations, all against a red ground. Illegibly signed by the artist lower right. Both paintings are presented in a shadow box. Bark painting is an Australian Aboriginal art form, involving painting on the interior of a strip of tree bark. This is a continuing form of artistic expression in Arnhem Land and other regions in the Top End of Australia, including parts of the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Traditionally, bark paintings were produced for instructional and ceremonial purposes and were transient objects. Today, they are keenly sought after by collectors and public arts institutions. One of a kind artwork.
