The lines in this painting depict rockholes and soakage water sites at the claypan site of Watanuma, north-west of the Kintore Community. A group of women camped at this site before travelling to the rockhole site of Malparingya and continuing east to Pinari, also north-west of Kintore.
While in the area the women gathered the edible fruit known as Pura or Bush Tomato from the small shrub Solanum chippendalei. This fruit is the size of a small apricot and after the seeds are removed can be stored for some time.
