ALSO known as Waa, Claude paints Dreaming stories which include the ocean, from his great great Grandmother on his Mother’s side of Gunditjmarra. He’s also a Wotjobaluk man and totem is the red-tailed Black Cockatoo. His skin name comes from Waa the Crow, protector and messenger of the Creator Spirit Bunjil.
Uncle Claude has lived in Fitzroy since he was 16, and has a deep love for all creatures. Here he shows how in November the Coral spawns for two days under a full moon. In those two days the sea life embarks on a feeding frenzy.
