The Kimberley
Expedition in 1992 by the Bradshaw Foundation

Associated with these Bradshaw paintings found near the King Edward River are extraordinary large outline figures with very fat limbs, and feet. Paintings of Feet rather than Hands are also found at this site.

Bradshaw paintings found at the King Edward River

Skulls at Wandjina site and the hand above shows scale of Bradshaw paintings

Also found at the King Edward River site are Wandjina Heads and skulls which are just visible in a small rock recess on the above right photo. Grahame Walsh's hand shows the scale of the vast majority of the Bradshaw paintings.

Spear throwing painting and Wandjina painting found on Bigge Island

The above right Bradshaw painting proves that the people had Spear-Throwers as well as boomerangs. On the left a Wandjina painting found on Bigge Island off the coast of the Kimberley, appears to be a giant hand, although the white paint on the wrist has almost disappeared, traces of paint can still be seen. It could be associated with Yams. The crocodile is a Salt Water species. No Bradshaw paintings were discovered on the Island during our 1992 visit.
