"Piltati"
Tjimpuna Williams
140cm x 75cm
Comes with certificate of authenticity
Please note there are two cuts on the edge of the canvas. This is not on the painting and simply on the edge used to stretch the canvas.
"There were two sisters who married two brothers, and they all lived together. One day, the women wandered off so far that they forgot about their husbands. Back at the camp, the brothers began to wonder, "Where are our wives?" and decided to go in search of them. One brother asked, "What should we become to look for them?" and the other replied, "Why don’t we turn into Rainbow Serpents?" So, they traveled through the sky, searching for their wives from above.
Eventually, they spotted the sisters hunting for carpet snakes and placed something in the hole where the women were digging. The women found it and moved to dig another hole, where again, the men had left something behind. This is how the brothers lured the women back to Piltati, where they transformed the sisters into Wanampi, swallowed them, and kept them in their throats. All four now live together in the waterhole and remain there to this day."
General Questions
Canvas vs Stretched
Canvas only - the painting will be shipped as a canvas scroll rolled up in a tube and not stretched onto timber (ready to hang). We do this to avoid any damage to the painting during transit. As such, you will notice a cheaper price tag for the product with this “Canvas only” option. If you purchase the stretched option by mistake we will get in contact with you.
Stretched - The painting will come stretched on a timber frame and ready to hang. This is usually available in Adelaide only. Please check individual listing descriptions.
If you purchase the stretched option by mistake we will get in contact with you. You will be refunded the difference of the stretching fee and the painting will be shipped to you as the canvas only.

Will my painting come with a certificate of authenticity?
Yes, all of our original paintings come with an Art by Farquhar Certificate of Authenticity.
A certificate of authenticity (COA) is a document that verifies the authenticity of a painting. Buying artwork with a COA is important for establishing the provenance and proving that it's genuine.
As we purchase majority of our paintings directly from artists, we have finished artist photos on hand. There may be certain circumstances where an artist photo cannot be provided, however you will still receive a certificate.
Artists sign paintings verso whenever possible.
