Acrylic on Belgian linen 1200 x 400mm SOLD
Graham has painted the country of his grandfather, Tjumpo Tjapanangka. This country is located south of
Balgo in the Great Sandy Desert and centred around the vast salt lake named Wilkinkarra (Lake McKay). The
country here is dominated by tali (sandhills) while the central circle is a tjurrnu (soakwater) which was created
by a snake during the Tjukurrpa (Dreaming).
