Lennard Walker is a senior custodian for the significant site of Kuru Ala that lies to the northern edge of the Spinifex Lands in the Great Victoria Desert of Western Australia and forms a major part of the Minyma Tjuta Tjukurpa (Seven Sisters Crea on Line). In this painting Lennard has depicted Wati Nyiru (the lustful man who pursues the women relentlessly) as a kuniya (carpet python) that he has changed into to tease the women into following him. The women think that the kuniya will make a good feed. Lennard has also painted the kantiru, the large native casuarina tree., which grows in this vicinity. Lennard has also drawn the other major water sources around Kuru Ala, the rock holes of; Kapi Wiyatjara, Nyuman, Tukaltjara, Piralungka, Purpurnya, Kaman and Tuwan.
