The paintings (Alice Springs NT - 02/08)

On one of the small paintings it shows two women sitting and making bush
tucker which is the name for the bush meal. On the other small painting you
can see 4 woman sitting (the oval symbol is the sign for a person sitting).
On both paintings the artist painted different bush vegetables and fruits
like bush banana, bush cucumber, bush berries and bush insects like honey
ants.
The pink big painting show the rainbow-snake dreaming. Two rainbow-snakes
are travelling to look for waterholes. They pass mountain ranges covered
with flowers found several waterholes which are the circles with the famous
aboriginal dots.
