Brooklyn bir'yun

My painting by Birrinbirrin (remember him?) shimmered the other day.
Wait, can it be I never mentioned that I acquired a painting by the Yolngu elder who plays himself (or someone of the same name) in "Ten Canoes," and plays a central role also in the article I wrote about trying to teach a course on Aboriginal Australian religion? I've had it since 2012, and up on the mantlepiece in the living room for several years.
