This is my Grandmother's Country at Binjin - Bucket Springs at Keep River National Park near Kununurra. This painting represents the knowledge of my Country and the skills that I have gained from my grandmother. The line through the middle of the artwork represents the Keep River, and the arch shapes at the top of the painting are the hills where we now have the community near.  The dotted circles represent the fresh water springs.
