Women's Body Painting Orange by Cindy Wallace. Cindy Wallace explores the relationship of Body Painting to ancient ancestral ceremonies/gatherings, where women paint with various paints and perform ritual offerings to their ancestors. These rituals have strict rules, and the paint must be of their community resembling their ancestors. They are only allowed to paint certain respected traditional patterns. After the paint, the women are considered as the spirit of their ancestors. 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.
