This one same story for me and my sister Jukuja

the dots are yuka (grasses)

Hand-carved by Dora Cox

I lived here when I was a little girl

just before the rain

Seasons change the colour of the desert country when Jila moves from jila to jila

We use grass at the bottom

Acylic on canvas

There is a jila there

traveling on the back of a wagon

yellow and orange are the sand colours

and we find rusty metal objects
