This detailed dot painting is by Marcia Nampijinpa Sampson and makes a special Australian gift for family and friends in Australia or overseas for birthdays, Christmas or as a wedding or anniversary present.

Marcia paints with the Aboriginal Owned and Governed art centre Warlukurlangu. She is located in Yuendumu a remote Aboriginal community 290 km north-west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia.

The site depicted in this painting is Pirlinyarnu (Mt. Farewell), about 165 km west of Yuendumu in the Northern Territory. The ‘kirda’ (owners) for the water Dreaming site at Pirlinyarnu are Nangala/Nampijinpa women and Jangala/Jampijinpa men.

Two Jangala men, rainmakers, sang the rain, unleashing a giant storm that collided with another storm from Wapurtali at Mirawarri. A ‘kirrkarlanji’ (brown falcon [Falco berigora]) carried the storm further west from Mirawarri. The two storms travelled across the country from Karlipirnpa, a ceremonial site for the water Dreaming near Kintore that is owned by members of the Napaljarri/Japaljarri and Napanangka/Japanangka subsections. Along the way the storms passed through Juntiparnta, a site that is owned by Jampijinpa men. The storm eventually became too heavy for the falcon. It dropped the water at Pirlinyarnu, where it formed an enormous ‘maluri’ (claypan). A ‘mulju’ (soakage) exists in this place today. Whenever it rains today, hundreds of ‘ngapangarlpa’ (bush ducks) still flock to Pirlinyarnu.

This original Aboriginal artwork will also make a special Australian gift for birthdays, Christmas and as a wedding or anniversary present.
