This delightful blank note book is the perfect gift. It depicts Gloria Petyarre's famous Bush Leaf or Bush Medicine Dreaming.

The depiction refers to particular leaves from plant species, which contain medicinal properties. The Aboriginal women from Utopia in Central Australia gather the leaves. The leaves are boiled, resin is added and mixed into a paste, which is used as bush medicine for many ailments.

The Bush Medicine Dreaming is celebrated in their awelye ceremonies.
