Elizabeth Gordon Napaltjarri Nampitjin 2006
Acrylic on canvas 300 x 800mm $750
Elizabeth has painted some of the country south of Balgo. This is tali (sandhill) country. The 'u' shapes
represent groups of nampitjin women sitting around telling stories. They are digging holes with their digging
sticks and hunting for goanna. The painting also shows bushfires, a snake and a cave. The lines that dominate
the painting represent the surrounding parma (hills) and tali (sandhills).
