Nyankulya says this about her paintings, "I travelled around this country in the early days with my family. There's a lot of rockholes and we used to walk to all of them. We would stop and camp for a while collecting food and then move to another place. The rockhole at Mt. Aloysius had a good water. I was born here. The other rockholes in my paintings are Inurantja, Tjilpultjanga, Kunpunga (watiku ngura men's place), Mapantji (patilku ngura ringneck parrot place), Ultjutjara, Iltjunga, Yaliri, Palkari, Numpanumpa, Pukara (Wati Kutjara Tjukurpa - two snake men's creation story), Anamarapiti, Palkini, Punu Wara, Apulunga, Attanga and Wanungtjiri."
