ELVERINA JOHNSON | 'Fishing at Weembal' | 2025 | PaintingThis one is called 'Fishing at Weembal. Weembal was where we would always go fishing. I have a lot of good memories from that place. My whole family would be lined up along the water with their fishing lines in, waiting patiently. It didn't matter whether we caught anything or not. It was one of those places that just felt calm and peaceful. There would be a fire going, fish cooking, women singing and children laughing. When I think about Weembal,

from the tribes of Wagedagam

I love when going out fishing or to the little surrounding island for dayout I would collect beautiful shells to bring back home
