In this painting, Alison
has depicted her country from a topographic point of view. The wavy lines represent the undulating
sandhills (tali), the concentric roundels represent waterholes and
campsites, while the forms in the corners of the canvas are the trees and
bushes that provide an abundance of bush tucker. Alison loves to sit and
tell jokes and talk about stories, old and new, and her skill for storytelling
is evident in her paintings.
