Bush Onion Dreaming Black by Jean Nampajinpa Hudson. In the Aboriginal language an equivalent of bush onion is 'Merne Yalke'. It grows on creek bed. When the grass of the plant dried out, Aboriginal people dug up the bush onions from the soil, a food that can be eaten raw or cooked. Jane Hudson learned painting from her mother and her works are neat, bold and colorful. The wonderful hues and dynamic, organic shapes make this multi-colored authentic Aborigine-designed fabric from M&S Textiles ideal for quilting, home decor and wearable art.
