I have painted the Bungle Bungles from my side – south of Nicholson where I was born. Big high mountains coming up from
the desert country, as far as you can see. This isn’t where the tourists come to see the Bungles – this is rough country. All
those hills red hot in summer, no water for a long way, and a dangerous part of the country. I haven’t been out that way for
a while, but I can remember it well. We used to work in this country when I was on Nicholson. Now about as far as I go is
to Ngling Anjaru (Cattle Creek), my Community – that’s to the south and a lot better country down that way.
