About All the Jila
This painting shows Lungarung, Winpa and the Mangala side of Yulparija country in the Great Sandy Desert of W.A. near the Percival Lakes. Weaver is represented by the green edged red t shaped cross and has depicted herself walking through country.

She says "this painting shows all the jila (living waterhole). Nyardanga, Nyirimbin, Mingarda, Milgarlgi, Lungarung" as illustrated by the path of circles down the mid-painting. She goes on to say "this country (pointing to the top right corner) Grandpa bin leave 'im for them. This country belong to old man but he bin pass away and leave 'im for all the brothers now. Snake place big one."
