Some more information on the art we discovered when we were in the Kimberley based on our research and findings carried out at the Northern Territory State Library.

We answer the following questions:
0:15 Why is there so much art in the Kimberley?
1:29 Why did we refer interchangeably to the art as Gwion or Bradshaw art?
2:00 How old is the Art?

Our research was based on reading the following literature:
Donaldson, Mike., Burrup Rock Art: Ancient Aboriginal rock art of Burrup Peninsula and Dampier Archipelago;
Donaldson, Mike., Kimberley Rock Art -Volume One: Mitchell Plateau Area (April 2012);
Donaldson, Mike., Kimberley Rock Art -Volume Two: North Kimberley (October 2012); and
Donaldson, Mike., Kimberley Rock Art -Volume Three: Rivers and Ranges (April 2013).
