Mr Jack was a stockman. He likes to tell stories about his time as a stockman on nearby cattle stations and as a young fella working on the sheep station at the Ernabella Mission. Mr Jack says about those days 'good memories! good times! a time staying strong in my heart'. His artwork pays tribute to the stockmen sitting around a campfire drinking a kapati (cup of tea) and telling stories like Mr Kulyuru's time at the rodeo in Alice Springs or Mr Ingkatji on his horse and cart.
