"Those are the sand-hills, when it is windy. In the morning, when the suns shining, they’re bright and yellow. Every time I do painting, I'm thinking about what's outside there, in the sand hills. They are important to me. Bush tucker, bush medicine and everything fresh we get from the sand-hills. Sometimes we go out there and get bush leaves to smoke our newborn babies. I'm thinking about my family too. Most of my family are artists and when we go out hunting we get stories from them."
