Demonstrated live over the Easter weekend at the 2025 Walhalla Easter Art Show, Bunjil’s Echo is a powerful tribute to the wedge-tailed eagle, one of Australia’s most iconic and revered birds. Set against the glow of a warm, fading sunset, the eagle stands proud and grounded, its feathers ruffled by the unseen winds of the high country. Rich, earthy tones weave through its plumage, capturing both the raw strength and quiet dignity of this magnificent creature.

The painting draws inspiration from Bunjil, the great eagle spirit and creator figure in First Nations lore, whose presence is deeply tied to the land and sky. The careful balance of bold textures and soft atmospheric background invites viewers to feel a connection to the timeless spirit of the landscape. Silhouetted trees in the distance whisper of the wild places the eagle calls home, reinforcing a sense of solitude, resilience, and reverence for nature.

Bunjil’s Echo is not just a portrait of a bird — it is an evocation of legacy, spirit, and the enduring echoes of country.
