AM 301/02 Madigan Thomas Pinay's Pocket - Violet Valley 2002
Natural ochre & pigment on canvas 80 x 60 cm $1,760.00

This country is on that side Pinay's Pocket in Voilet Valley, Madigan's family's country. There are two big nowann ( caves) in this country, with big shelters or overhangs. This is a good place to camp. Behind the caves is a big hill called Doomeriny. In the early days when Madigan was a young girl, this place was her ''daam'', her camp.  Madigan has painted the daam as white in front of the nowaan's in black.  There is a bush track or bunyan that meanders up to this place.  There are many joowarliny, (small roung hills in this country). This is beautiful country.
