Aboriginal Art and Dreamtime Stories
YOUR EXPERIENCE PROVIDER
Dale Tilbrook Experiences
Immerse yourself a little deeper in this hands on and interactive art session with Dale Tilbrook, a Wardandi Bibbulmun woman, in the beautiful Swan Valley, just 30 minutes from Perth, Western Australia. There is something meditative about applying dots to a canvas or object. It is repetitive and soothing. Almost unconsciously the pattern and story evolve. Learn about traditional and contemporary Aboriginal art. Absorb Dreamtime stories as you paint. In the relaxed setting of Maalinup Aboriginal Gallery in the Swan Valley you can taste a variety of wild bush foods, explore the bush food garden and feed the emus who are happy to pose for a photo opportunity.
