Robb Wilson is a very proud WYGULKAIP MAN. Born in the small Wheatbelt Town of Narrogin on 25/09/1957, Robb and his family shifted to Mount Barker, also in the southwest of Western Australia, where he was educated and started his working life as a shearer.

 He went on to start his own shearing team and work the width and breadth of this huge country. He is married, has 3 children, and 15 years ago shifted his family to Kalgoorlie-Boulder where he helped his brother get a taxi business up and running. He also opened a Fish and Chip shop for 1 of his children to run. That dreaded disease, sugar diabetes, has wreaked havoc with his health, so he thought, "Why not?" I will try painting, and it has just exploded. He has sold pieces all over the world. Good for a self-taught man who has only been at it since the pandemic hit in 2000.           

 Living in Kalgoorlie and its surroundings can be an unforgiving, rugged experience, especially for those in the mining industry who face daily stressors such as relationships and mental health.

 This collection of works by established Kalgoorlie artist Rob Wilson aims to both highlight and celebrate life in this country, from its beautiful landscapes to the people and characters that live in the WA Goldfields.

 The Kangaroo is one of the most iconic animals in Australia, this is for good reason; they hold incredible cultural importance for many First Nations people. They have always been vital to Indigenous people's way of life as an important food source and as part of cultural rituals and Dreamtime stories.

 When Aboriginal people speak of their Kangaroo Dreams, they are trying to convey a profound, intimate connection they feel with that animal deep within the recesses of their soul and consciousness. That kangaroo may be an Elder, Teacher, Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, Son, or Daughter, and as one might expect with any family or tribe, there is a deep, abiding sense of community with all of the nuances that relationship entails.

 This inexplicable feeling of kindredness that Indigenous peoples feel towards their fellow creatures transcends the confines of Western science, which has a limited understanding of what constitutes ‘knowledge’.

 Goanna – The Protector

In many Aboriginal cultures, the goanna is a Creator spirit in Dreamtime stories. Like other animals central to life, they also hold a totemic status, form part of ceremonies and feature in parables ranging from how to conduct oneself to how and when to hunt.

 Rainbow Serpent

 In Aboriginal society, the rainbow serpent (Serpent) dreaming represents one of nature and spirit's great and powerful forces. Connected to water, the Rainbow Serpent is the great life-giver and protector of water, his spiritual home.

 For Aboriginal people of the desert, the Rainbow Serpent lives in the waterholes of their country and travels between them, either under the ground or in the storm clouds when a rain storm is moving. His presence brings on the rains, and if he is offended, he can prevent the rains and cause drought or inundations that cause people to perish.

Waterhole

 Water sources are sacred places to Aboriginal people of the desert, and each waterhole has a Creation story from the Dreaming attached to it. The Creation story gives the waterhole and the people who are its custodians a common bond and obligation. While traditionally, Aboriginal people are nomadic in that they follow the seasons in searching out native plants and hunting native animals, they stay within their own clan estates.

 This is the territory ‘owned’ by individual families with intricate knowledge of the country and its resources. Waterholes found on their country are known precisely, from their Creation story through to the sense of whether the water will be present or drying up.

Songmics Slate Gray Travel Jewelry Box
I purchased the slate gray Songmics jewelry box for travel purposes. We take long vacations and have an upcoming 20 day cruise. I wanted a jewelry box that was compact enough to put in my carry-on bag, but still had room to hold a months worth of jewelry, especially to keep my necklaces for tangling. When this arrived, I was pleasantly surprised and the packaging was great, shipped in a sturdy box. so no damage to the jewelry box. The color is a rich gray and the 2 tier box, while small, holds a lot of jewelry. I wanted to purchase the ink black but could not justify paying twice the price of the gray one just to get it in black. It is small enough that it will fit in most any hotel/ship safe so I won't be sitting out in the room anyway. It has a strong magnetic snap that keeps the box from opening while in transit. The one negative for me is that the pierced earring card is so thick that my earrings barely go through to have enough room on the back side the slip the backs on. I may separate the double thick card, realizing it will not look as nice but will be more functional. The bottom half of the box will hold bracelets up to 1 1/4" wide. There is enough room under the earrings card to place pendants, additional earrings, etc. The necklace holder is designed to hold 5 necklaces, but I added one more by going across the top, end to end, to prevent tangling. I also placed smaller hoop earrings in the ring holder which holds them securely. This box held 7 bracelets, 2 of which were wide, 5 rings, 9 necklaces (I placed 3 in the bottom of the box, and had room for 23 pair of earrings (some placed in the ring holder and in the bottom of the bo)! I would buy this again in a heartbeat.
