The White Cockatoo with Rainbow Serpent teaches us about a rebirthing of the old in order to step into the new. The White Cockatoo gives you the light you need in order to get yourself out of the dark and the Rainbow Serpent enables you to cleanse yourself from any negative karma that has been keeping you in the past. The Rainbow Serpent is a powerful spiritual creator being which created all the waterways, bringing life to all animals.



The White Cockatoo is known as the ‘Sulphur Crested Cockatoo’ because of its yellow coloured crest, underwing and tail. It is one of the largest parrots in Australia, with the Palm Cockatoo being the largest. The White Cockatoo has a very loud call, occurring in numbers they can be found in wooded habitats where they often feed in large numbers on the ground with at least one standing high in a tree keeping guard.

The Dreamtime Cockatoo Painting was painted back in 2014. Mirree still remembers today living in Newcastle located in NSW in Australia before the actual collection was brought to life. She would to drive to work which was at an Animal Pet Store and Produce and watch the White Cockatoos whilst looking from above following her in the car. 
She knew that is was nice to think that way although she knew deep down that is was a regular flight path that the Cockatoos would take.



Over the years during Mirree’s travels the White Cockatoos would always turn up everywhere Mirree would go until one day whilst living in the Central West of NSW where she currently resides in her studio a friend online shared a story about them. Mirree was intrigued and this was the 1st story about the White Cockatoos Mirree had heard at the time.



It was a story from a healing friend of hers, you see Mirree has done just as many courses and learning on healing as she has done learning and teaching Art over the years. Mirree always wanted to come up with a form of healing which was unique to her and over the years she has mastered the two, combining them into her paintings.



Amid the ceaseless rhythm of city life, Emily often sought moments of solace and connection. One evening, while browsing through her social media feed, she stumbled upon a captivating image—a painting titled "Dreamtime Cockatoo" by Mirree, a celebrated contemporary Aboriginal artist. The artwork's bold colors and intricate patterns immediately caught Emily's eye, evoking a sense of wonder and intrigue.
Intrigued by the painting's symbolism and its potential to resonate with her own journey, Emily delved deeper into Mirree's online gallery. Each brushstroke seemed to tell a story—a narrative of transformation and renewal deeply rooted in Aboriginal Dreamtime mythology.

As she read Mirree's description of "Dreamtime Cockatoo," Emily felt a deep resonance with its themes of rebirth and spiritual awakening. The cockatoo, known in Aboriginal culture as a symbol of renewal and resilience, spoke to Emily's own aspirations for personal growth and transformation.

Moved by the artwork's beauty and significance, Emily hesitated momentarily, contemplating the decision to acquire it. She knew the painting could serve as a powerful reminder of resilience and the enduring wisdom of Aboriginal traditions.

Emily bookmarked the page where "Dreamtime Cockatoo" was displayed, revisiting it often in the days that followed. Each time she gazed at the painting online, she felt a stirring within—a sense of connection to something deeper, a recognition of the transformative power of art to mirror and inspire personal growth.

Encouraged by a sense of kinship with Mirree's artistry and the symbolism behind "Dreamtime Cockatoo," Emily continued to reflect on how the painting could enrich her life. She imagined it hanging in her living room, a vibrant testament to resilience and the cyclical nature of life—a symbol of hope and renewal that would inspire her daily.

Intrigued by the prospect of owning such a meaningful piece, Emily began to envision the conversations it might spark, the moments of contemplation it could invite. Yet, she remained thoughtful, knowing that this decision went beyond mere decoration—it was about investing in a piece of art that would resonate with her on a profound level, echoing her own journey of rebirth and renewal.

Emily reached out to Mirree's online studio, expressing her admiration for "Dreamtime Cockatoo" and her desire to learn more about its creation. In response, Mirree warmly shared the inspiration behind the painting—the story of a cockatoo's journey through cycles of change and transformation, symbolizing the renewal of spirit and the resilience of life.

As Emily engaged in dialogue with Mirree, she gained deeper insights into the painting's symbolism and its connection to Aboriginal culture. She found herself drawn into a world of storytelling and symbolism, where each brushstroke carried layers of meaning waiting to be explored.

Emily's journey with "Dreamtime Cockatoo" became a pathway to self-discovery—a reminder of the power of art to transcend barriers and touch the soul in profound and unexpected ways. Whether she ultimately decided to purchase the painting or not, its impact on her life had already begun, sparking a process of reflection and renewal that mirrored the cyclical nature of the cockatoo's journey in Aboriginal stories.



The White Cockatoo Dreamtime Painting holds special and hidden meanings which are contained in its story with an undying message about starting over. This requires us to think deeply about making new decisions which are based on new beginnings. If you’ve ever read the story about the Cockatoos then you would know that it is about a rebirth of the new in order to start again through the connection the birds have with the Rainbow Serpent.



The process of rebirthing can be similar to a change in life. It is not a topic that is overly talked about and is definitely an important part of life when we can consider Art as a tool for health and wellbeing. Although relatively new Neuro Arts is a classic example of how Art can be viewed in many different ways, but in particular relating to the crossroads of science, the arts and technology to provide us with the evidence that Art is Medicine. 
Art can lower the effects and burden of mental health challenges, addiction and trauma.
 Especially in the past 2 decades The World Health Organisation tells us about the increase in research about the effects the Arts has on health and wellbeing.
These beneficial findings are proof that the psychical Artwork is of value in its own right that can expand the imagination or provide an emotional response.



As stated in a Research Journal of Creativity in 2023 that being open to new ideas or change is of benefit when we can consider the growing evidence of influence Art engagement has on later life cognition. As we age so does our cognitive decline, which is related to how we process and understand knowledge and our awareness through thoughts, experiences and our senses. Active participation and observation in the Arts can stimulate the creation of new neural pathways, modern research tells us that new neural pathways are designed to adapt to new ways of thinking which is linked to new learning and experiences so that we can create new memories which are more fulfilling and in line with our own happiness.



Our own kind of happiness depends on making the right choices that are directly in line with our expectations of joy and peace of life and even when we are faced with making the right choices our brain can make it hard to initiate a change so that it sticks because we are creatures of habit.
There is a 3 way pathway in the brain that is connected to this process of re-wiring our brain which can be linked to starting over, rebirth or change of life.
Just like the reticular activating system can help us to achieve our goals when we use the tool of visualisation, but its essential to have a clear goal in mind in order to activate this.
A recent study conducted by a Professor in neuroaesthetics where participants were shown Paintings by major artists whilst receiving their brain scans. This study showed an increase of 10% blood flow to the brain from the participants that viewed the paintings they loved best. This part of the brain was associated with pleasure, which was the equivalent to looking at a loved one.
So this increase in evidence that Art can enhance our way of life through the brain function connecting to our brain wave patterns, emotions and nervous system is a truly a break-through in medicine. Wouldn’t you agree?



So if your clear goal is to have a happy relationship or marriage and if visualising a happy couple is harder for you than looking at birds such as the medicine of the Dreamtime Cockatoos and you have a love for nature, culture, birds and animals, the visualisation process maybe the answer to fulfilling your dreams of starting over which can offer you a safe space to heal and learn something new about Life Changes at home or in your own time little by little everyday. 
Although we are creatures of habit there is always light at the end of the tunnel leading us to something much better than we ever had experienced from before. When we make the conscious decision through deliberate intentions to heal hurt, disappointment and sadness on the deepest level from the past and replace it with something that’s beyond our wildest dreams, we can rely on this ground breaking evidence and gladly visualise our goals by clearly knowing that it will be achievable if we keep at it day by day.
