This is favourite of ours - the details are wonderful

"This painting is about our land when we go out bush. Wildflowers grow in different seasons, the two sides is when people get water (waterholes) - fire people will sleep around the fire then get up and look for bush food and look at the beautiful wild flowers growing around this country. Sometimes, they gather seeds from the flowers to use as bush medicine" Patricia Ellis SOLD
