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 on to another place. The rockhole at Mt Aloysius had 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, Palkarli, Numpanumpa, Pukara (Wati Kutjara Tjukurpa - two snake men’s creation story), Anamarapiti, Palkini, Punu Wara, Apulunga, Atianga and Wanungtjiri."
