Byanimby, Goormbidja & Bulyunga
Artist: Mignonette Jamin
Story: Byanimby, Goormbidja & Bulyunga – these are my son’s names and the name of the hills. During the wet season there are waterfalls and run off creeks that flow down from the hills.
All around is Mulgnin – spinifex country. The spinifex clumps in my country are big. You can hide a man in this country. Around the edge of the painting are the palm trees. Some of these bush palms grow very tall.
