Jock Mosquito Mindi Mindi 2009 Ochre on canvas 60 x 60cm SOLD
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.
