Lanita Numina is a distinguished contemporary Aboriginal artist from the Northern Territory, and one of the middle sisters in the renowned group of six desert artists that have contributed to the evolution of the Central Desert Dot Painting Movement. Lanita comes from a well-established lineage of desert painters, with her artistic roots tracing back to her mother, Barbara Price Mtjimbana, and her aunties, Gloria and Kathleen Petyarre—all prominent figures in the art world of Alice Springs and the wider desert region.

Lanita spent much of her childhood living with her mother and aunties on Stirling Station, near Ti Tree, a remote area in the heart of the Central Desert. Surrounded by the rich cultural practices of her family, she developed an early connection to the land, its stories, and the deeply ingrained artistic traditions of her people. Although she began painting later than her older sisters, Lanita was naturally drawn to the art form, taught by her sisters and other relatives who shared their knowledge of traditional design and techniques.

Her artistic education also came from her interactions with well-known desert artists in her extended family circle, including her aunties Gloria and Kathleen Petyarre, who are recognised for their exceptional contributions to Aboriginal art. Through these familial connections, Lanita was introduced to the distinctive dot-dot technique of the Central Desert, and she has since made her own mark within the movement.

Lanita primarily resides in Darwin, where she often lives with her sisters, but she maintains close ties to her cultural roots and regularly visits her mother, Barbara, either in Ti Tree or bringing her to Darwin for visits. This bond with her family and the land continues to inform her artistic practice, as Lanita paints stories and symbols that reflect her connection to her Country, ancestors, and the rich desert landscape.

Her works often explore themes of Country, Dreaming, and family lineage, incorporating traditional designs with a contemporary approach. Lanita’s paintings are distinguished by their use of vibrant colours, complex layering, and the intricate dotting technique that reflects both the physical and spiritual connections to the land and its stories.

Women’s Ceremony Dreaming

The Women’s Ceremony Dreaming is a significant cultural narrative from the Northern Territory, passed down through generations of Aboriginal women. This Dreaming represents the powerful and sacred ceremonies performed by women in ceremonial sites across the land. These rituals, often lasting for several days, are central to the spiritual and social life of the community, celebrating connection to Country, identity, and the ancestral stories that sustain them.

Women’s ceremonies are an integral part of Aboriginal culture, where knowledge, traditions, and stories are shared through dance, song, and art. The Dreaming tells of the land’s creation and its deep connection to the lives of women, who are custodians of the land’s wisdom and spiritual power.

In the art, symbols and motifs associated with this Dreaming depict the sacred sites, the body paint used in ceremonies, and the landscape where women gather. Dot painting techniques, vibrant colours, and abstract forms are used to represent the layers of meaning embedded in the ceremony – from the stories of ancestors to the sacred knowledge transmitted from one generation to the next.

The artworks celebrating Women’s Ceremony Dreaming reflect the ongoing importance of women’s roles in maintaining cultural practices, transmitting knowledge, and ensuring the continuation of these vital ceremonies into the future.

doggy toy chicken leg
Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg
I bought this chicken leg toy for my dog and it quickly became one of his favorites. The yellow top part has two different sections — the very top makes a crinkly sound like paper when he bites it, and the middle squeaks when he chews or presses on it, which really keeps him interested. The white bottom part is super soft and easy for me to hold, so it’s great for playing tug or just interacting with him. The size is perfect for small dogs, but it might feel a bit small for larger breeds — that said, the material quality is really nice. Overall, it feels well made, fun, and keeps my dog entertained without getting bored. Definitely a good buy.

Fun, engaging, and cute toy for dogs!
Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer, Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer
I got the fried fish toy for my dog. So far, he really enjoys the squeaking noise and comes running every time he hears it. The toy material is pretty thick and is holding up well during playtime. The size of this toy is perfect for my small dog but it might be a bit small for larger dogs. Overall it's a fun and super cute toy for my pets that's become a favorite!

Fun enrichment
Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer, Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer
Bought this to keep my dog busy while I’m out, and surprisingly it works. It’s soft, lightweight, and he was interested right away. Hiding treats inside turns it into a sniffing challenge that keeps him occupied longer than expected. The squeaker does its job, and the material feels gentle, but this is not for heavy chewers. If your dog destroys toys for sport, proceed with caution. Overall, it’s a fun enrichment toy that helps with boredom. Great for light to moderate play and dogs who don’t choose violence every day.

Really cute and great for photos
Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg, Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg
This drumstick plush toy is super cute and looks great in pictures. My dog liked it right away and keeps carrying it around. It’s soft, lightweight, and the size is just right. We’ve already taken a few fun photos with it, and it would also make a nice little gift for someone with a dog. Simple, well made, and definitely worth it.

Don't Bother Unless You Have Something The Size of a Chihuahua
Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg
Title is definitely deceiving. We have 2 Pitbulls and a Bull Terrier. They simply looked at this thing and it blew into pieces. These are more for smaller dogs. I wouldn't even say medium. It was just a big disappointment. I was excited to give them this toy, until it arrived and I saw how small it was.
