Flying art

an experience of travel

Whenever I come back to Australia from a trip overseas, I can't help but notice those amazing Boeing jumbo jets with indigenous art. Here's a picture of the nose of Qantas VH-OJB. The plane is named 'Wunala Dreaming'. It made me think that being Australian is seeing one of these gigantic planes up in the sky with a design that is uniquely Australian.
 
Well, if seeing a jumbo adorned with Aboriginal art is an Australian experience, imagine what it would be like to PAINT the darn thing!
