Notes:Literature: "The 1925 Aboriginalised designs evidenced stylistic similarities with the geometric products of modernist cooperatives .....Her reading of Taphoglyph forms as 'only carvings on the rough bark, and so leave the designer a wide field in colour', allowed her to modernise and Europeanise her designs with unmodulated primary colours" Edwards,D& Peel R. Margaret Preston AGNSW, 2005 p102-103
