Yuluwirri

Yuluwirri means rainbow in the Gamilaroi Ularoi Language, and it's also a symbol of joy, beauty, and connection to the natural world. In this stunning colouring book for both First Nations people and allies alike, artist Lakkari Pitt shares artworks and stories of her culture, family, community, and connection to her people's land.

The range of beautiful artworks is displayed across three chapters. Gunimaa means Mother Earth, and in this chapter, Lakkari explores the movement, essence, and stories of her Country. The second chapter is Warranggal Yinarr, which means strong and powerful woman, where the artworks celebrate the traits and qualities that Lakkari admires in women. In the third chapter, Dhiiyaan (family), Lakkari's artworks emphasise how families are built around community and how First Nations people are nurtured by their kinship systems.

Lakkari offers helpful colouring tips for every artwork, and there's a glossary of Gamilaroi Ularoi words at the front of the book.

Thick paper means you can use your favourite colouring pens or pencils on every page.
