The First Nations People of Australia have a close connection to their environment and the native animals. Why do you think that is? How did they feel about the animals? What beliefs did they have about them and the way the world has been created? Their artwork often tells a story. Can you find some traditional stories about animals and the environment?
For this activity you will need:
⭐ A piece of paper
⭐ A texta
⭐ Water colour paints
⭐ A paint brush
Artventure Tip: You might like to try using more traditional materials for your artwork. You could try using bark from a tree instead of paper and try using acrylic paint instead of texta and watercolours.
