In this painting the artist has shown country neer Keep River National Park. The yellow lines mark the creeks.
The creek at the top is Bottleless Creek. The creek running down the left is Moorrdibi Creek. At the top of the
painting is Frog Dreaming to the left and Frogmouth Dreaming to the right. The frogmouth was eating water lilly
with a hot taste and burnt his mouth in this place. Around Goordooding Lagoon is a lot of small rocks which is the
rubbish dropped from the water lillies. Below the lagoon is another place called Jarleenim. This painting is one of
the very first paintings of Peter Newry.
