        Curly Barrkadubbu was an important bark painter in Western Arnhem Land in the 1970s and a contemporary of Peter Maralwanga. He was tutored by Yirawala when they shared outstations at Table Hill and Marrkolidjban, which both men helped to establish. His paintings were included in a number of landmark exhibitions during the 1970s and 1980s and are held in most major Australian institutions. Curly Bardkadubbu's works are mainly of totemic animals and are invariably on a rectangular bark with a unicolour background. They often have the body completely infilled with rarrk (cross hatching) and some of the extremities filled in with a block of solid colour as exemplified by this work.
