Pauline has painted some of her father's country. Pauline's father, Sunfly Tjampitjin, was a senior custodian for
country south of Balgo, near vast salt lake of Wilkinkarra (Lake MacKay). Pauline has painted a warran (claypan)
with a soakage hole where water was found after the rockholes had long dried up. During the day birds come to
drink here. This site is an important Law and Ceremony site, in which Pauline's father was a Senior Custodian. This
is rainmaking Country and assosiated with 'Ngapa Tjukurrpa' (water dreaming).
