Mick Quilliam Wattle Seeds 2009
Acrylic on canvas 600 x 1530mm SOLD
This painting represents the ripe wattle seeds that have fallen to the ground. Both the green and ripe seeds are
very nutritious and a great source of protein. The green seeds were eaten like peas. Ripe seeds were ground,
moistened and roasted to make a damper.
