This painting is sold with an accompanying Papunya Tula Artists certificate that reads in part: 'This painting depicts designs associated with the site of Myilili, near Jupiter Well in Western Australia. This site is situated on a broad sweep of plains country which is surrounded by sandhills. These sandhills are represented in the painting by the rows of parrallel lines. In ancestral times a large group of Tingari Men camped at this site before travelling east and then north-east to Wilkinkarra (Lake MacKay)."
