We used to collect he coloured rocks from the hills

Food for camels

thats what we used to call it back then

telling other family "I know more than you

The country was pretty bare then not much vegetation

I been walk round this country when I was little girl

You can see the flowers that come up after the rain season

It will make you sick feel dizzy and headache the long lines represent sand hill jilji

This painting is about my mother country

something like a pea

when he got back he took me and my two brothers and two sisters to Moola Bulla station
