This urrempere (punisher) is a nice and soft wood to work on – desert oak, but it’s a young one. I like the wood, that’s why I went for this wood. I think it’s a pretty good wood for these type of punishers. I had to travel a bit hard to get this wood. Kele.

Desert Mob is presented annually in Mparntwe | Alice Springs on Arrernte Country.
