This is a painting of a bush medicine leaf. Aboriginal women in remote Central Australia Communities carefully collect the leaves and prepare them into healing medicines. Some leaves are crushed and soaked in water to create soothing washes for skin, while others are brewed into teas to relieve colds, fevers, flu and pain. Aboriginal people use these traditional medicines to heal themselves.
