Lynette Williams paints the seeds that are often used to make damper, a bread-like tucker. It is collected by women and ground into a flour, mixed with water and put on the coals to cook. Using fine lines and meticulously painted dots, Lynette composes concentric circles on the canvas, representing the waterholes around which the damper seed grows.
