Kukula McDonald is widely acclaimed for her paintings of Red- and Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoos, also known as "iranti", and other native birds such as Sulphur-crested and Major Mitchell cockatoos. Kukula has a knack for capturing the "cheeky" attitudes of the cockatoos, with each one exhibiting an individual expression. Kukula likes to create stories about the relationships between the birds as she paints.
