  This painting is sold with a Warlayirti Artists certificate that reads, "This area is marked by a large number of creeks that join together and after the heavy rains of summer flood into the salty Lake Gregory. These features are believed to date from the time of the Tjukurrpa or Dreamtime and to signify the paths followed by two Rainbow Snakes or Wanayarra. These Snakes camp inside waterholes but sometimes travel over the country. These sacred matters are looked after by older men such as the artist."
