Description
This painting depicts part of Sturt Creek which flows near Billiluna. A line in the centre of the painting shows the bed of the creek lined with black mud. Meandering white lines depict the creek in annual food as it brings down 'milk water' from country to the north on the N.T. border. These lines also refer to Kurrawarri, sacred body paint designs used in the ceremonies of this place.
As appears on the Warlayirti Artists certificate.
