“This is for any fatherly figure, those guiding hands that teach you things that you need to be taught at a young age. You can be taught many different things by many different male figures in your life: uncles, grandfathers, any fatherly figure that teaches you the lessons that you need to be taught.” - Brayden

A Father's Teachings
This painting depicts the lessons and the ways a father teaches their young. On the top right it shows a father with his children around a campfire with feet (grey for father and black for children) leading down to a river bank for a ceremony that First Nations peoples do to signify a transition into adulthood. The right side of the painting also displays the knowledge a father passes down to their kin such as family lineage, Dreamtime stories, tools and instruments and how to navigate the bush. The bottom left of the painting depicts the ways a father emu takes care of his young (father emu with his eggs in the bottom left cirlce) taking his newly-hatched chicks down to the river bank for a drink (shown with emu tracks). The father emu will also teach his young how to avoid predators, how to eat, how to navigate the bush and lastly carry on the life of the species.
