This painting is about waterholes in the desert where the old people used to walk from water hole to water hole in the canning Stock Route area. All the colours represent all the different wildflowers and the brown is the sand dunes. The circles represent different water holes.

Biography:

I was born at La Grange at the old hospital. I grew up there and have been there all my life with my parents. I started painting in 2015.


What inspired me the most is the way the old people used to tell me stories about their country and their families background. When they used to paint they used the colours to represent the land, seas, flowers, animals and other things.
