Christine Winmar is a Noongar woman, born in Midland, Western Australia, in 1965. Her skin name is ‘Allawah’, which is an Aboriginal term meaning "Stay here. " Christine received instruction in painting from her father, a distinguished artist and didgeridoo craftsman, who imparted many aspects and techniques of Noongar art that are evident in her current work. Subsequently, she began to experiment with various styles and techniques, bolstered by the support of her family and friends. Additionally, Christine spent several years in the Kimberley region, where she further honed her skills by integrating techniques utilised by Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory.

 By 1997, Christine was selling her artworks through an Aboriginal art gallery in Perth. Her inaugural joint exhibition occurred shortly thereafter, in 2005, when she, alongside fellow artists Mingi May Barnes, Geoff Lindsey, and Tjinanginy, showcased their works in Perth and Cottesloe. 

 In 2009, Christine presented her work along with several other artists in the “Colours of Australia” exhibition held in both Perth and San Francisco.

 Christine engages with diverse media, including canvas, pottery, wood, and glass. She frequently employs dot techniques to create vibrant and colourful patterns.

The meanings behind her artwork

Often referred to as native companions or Australian cranes, these elegant grey birds are renowned for their impressive dancing displays, which seem to serve as both a source of enjoyment and part of their mating rituals. The Aboriginal people have celebrated their fluid movements through dance. Female vocal birds add a distinctive trumpeting sound to their performances. They move gracefully across the plains, and the essence of their dance exudes joy and spontaneity. Prepare for a celebration if a Brolga gently enters your life!

 In a famous Dreaming story about Brolga, she was portrayed as a beautiful girl who had an unyielding passion for dancing. A wirrinun (shaman) sought her as his wife, but she turned down his advances, as she did with all men. Her devotion was solely to dance, leaving no room for distractions. He nurtured resentment until one day, while witnessing her dance alone on the plain, he seized the opportunity to transform into a willy-willy (small whirlwind) to abduct her. The Great Spirit intervened, transforming her into the Brolga we recognise today. She continues to dance.

Brolga represents the power to pursue your creative passions and talents while receiving support. The girl was cared for by her tribe, allowing her to refine her skills, even when they weren't essential for survival. As a rare mark of respect, she was invited to dance at men’s corroborees. Brolga symbolises the idea of chasing dreams and expressing oneself creatively in a professional context. All it takes is believing in yourself and dedicating time – Brolga’s dance itself demonstrates the validity of self-expression!

 Clearly, the Brolga embodies creativity, particularly in dance and self-expression. She was an exceptional dancer, pouring all her energy into it. What talents do you possess in your life? Brolga performs her graceful dance of creative expression, inviting you to join her.

Charming Coloring Book — Fun for All Ages
Format: Paperback
This coloring book has quickly become a favorite in our house! The illustrations are adorable and relaxing, making it just as enjoyable for adults as it is for kids. My daughter and I have spent hours coloring together, and it’s been a great way to unwind after school or on quiet weekend afternoons. What I love most is how versatile it feels — the designs range from simple and playful to more detailed, so everyone finds pages that match their mood and skill level. It’s also a fun way to keep little hands engaged without screens. Whether you’re looking for a creative activity to share with your kids or a gentle, artistic escape for yourself, this coloring book delivers plenty of charm and enjoyment. The only reason giving 4 stars is because of the price. Although the book is great, I do not think it is worth almost $10.

Excellent Price & Function!
Size: No Size, Style: 4V Screwdriver_Twist 2.0 2pc Set
An excellent power screwdriver for assembly work where high torque is not needed. I haven't stripped any screw threads yet. The battery lockout feature is nice especially if it's bumping around in a tool box. It feels good and the switch works good too. The battery indicator LEDs work good too. The adjustable angle on the end works good too. Watching it turn through the clear windows is a neat function too. It works better than the Ryobi screwdriver it replaced. The torque is good without having too much torque for lighter work. It looks nice and feels of really good quality. The battery life appears to be good as well. I would buy it again when needed. Excellent price!

Great tool
Size: No Size, Style: 4V Screwdriver_Twist 2.0 2pc Set
This thing is exactly what I wanted, now everybody saying that it lacks power or anything else, doesn’t understand Tools in my opinion that’s what an impact drivers for. This thing isn’t meant to lag screws into a piece of wood. But this thing is perfect for anything you would just need a normal screwdriver for like installing door handles or outlets or light fixtures or furniture, etc. I find it has plenty of torque, and it could fit into most areas with the swivel design. And feels like a good tool doesn’t feel cheap. And unlike the other ones that have this weird twist motion to activate it, this one has a Forward and reverse button which I prefer.

Power your way on next job. Just buy it!
Size: No Size, Style: 4V Screwdriver_Twist 2.0 2pc Set
I have every tool known to man. I have tools to fix other tools. Most of them are rubber coated for safety. But I didn’t have a powered screwdriver. Not sure why. This thing is great, I had a project where I had to take apart a Kirby vacuum and this really sped the process, looking forward to using it on 1 million other projects, versus my impact driver, which I used on most everything. Torque seems great, even loosens tight screws, and I like the 45° bend to hold the screwdriver. Seems to hold a charge very well, and it feels lightweight in hand. Not sure why I didn’t buy one 20 years ago. Good value, as I bought it on sale.
