This painting shows Cowboy Loy’s depiction of the Bush Turkey Dreaming and is an important story for this artist. The painting is created using a series of microscopic dots that represent the travels of the Bush Turkey throughout the artist’s homelands in Utopia in Central Australia.
Each of the small circles in the painting represents a site at which the turkey stopped. This is an important story that has been passed onto Cowboy by his father, this story is now being passed onto Cowboy’s grandson.
